Abstract

It was in 1997 when I first met Gene at Hong Kong on the Workshop on Scientific Computing dedicated to his 65th birthday. Then Gene introduced me to my first two foreign teachers, Iain S. Duff and Andrew J. Wathen, whom I visited for one year from August 1997 to August 1998. The communication and discussion with Gene, Iain, and Andy on solving nonsymmetric linear systems arising from discretization of the convection–diffusion equations by making use of efficient preconditioning techniques changed my research interest and also my academic life, as I then began to study more application-oriented problems and computation-based methods.
