0123533StoneThis project will support the first three years of the Intermountain/Southwest Conference on Industrial and Interdisciplinary Mathematics to be held at Utah State University, Colorado State University, and Arizona State University. The conference series, which will rotate among these institutions on an annual basis, would provide both a venue for the presentation of problems in industrial and interdisciplinary mathematics and a forum for the discussion of ways to broaden the traditional curriculum in order to prepare mathematicians for industrial and interdisciplinary positions. The conferences would bring together researchers from both academia and industry, enabling cross-fertilization between the programs in the Intermountain/Southwest region, and providing a venue for the students to present their work and interact with other students, faculty, and representatives from industry.The first of these annual meetings will be held at Utah State University in Logan, UT in February 2002. The two-day meeting will include sessions for invited talks by researchers from academia and industry, a round-table discussion involving faculty and industry representatives, sessions of shorter contributed talks and/or poster sessions, a special session involving only graduate students, and an informational session for undergraduates. The round-table discussion would focus on (a) integrating the needs of local industry into the mathematics curriculum and (b) current research activities in the region. For the first meeting, representatives from the Boeing Company have already agreed to attend and individuals at Motorola, Intel, IBM, and Hewlett Packard have been approached. Participation is also expected by faculty members from departments of physics, electrical and computer engineering, computer science, and industrial engineering. Faculty and students from other universities in the region and from broader areas will be invited to attend.This conference series will be jointly supported by the Applied Mathematics Program and the Infrastructure Program of the Division of Mathematical Sciences and by the Office of Multidisciplinary Activities of the Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences.

0123533Stone该项目将支持在犹他州立大学、科罗拉多州立大学和亚利桑那州立大学举行的山间/西南工业和跨学科数学会议的前三年。 该系列会议每年在这些机构之间轮流举办，既提供了一个展示工业和跨学科数学问题的场所，也提供了一个讨论如何扩大传统课程的论坛，以便为数学家担任工业和跨学科职位做好准备。这些会议将汇集来自学术界和工业界的研究人员，使山间/西南地区的项目之间能够相互促进，并为学生提供展示其工作并与其他学生、教师和工业界代表互动的场所。第一次年会将于 2002 年 2 月在犹他州洛根市的犹他州立大学举行。为期两天的会议将包括学术界研究人员的受邀演讲。 和行业，由教师和行业代表参加的圆桌讨论，较短的演讲和/或海报会议，仅涉及研究生的特别会议，以及本科生的信息会议。圆桌讨论将重点讨论（a）将当地工业的需求纳入数学课程以及（b）该地区当前的研究活动。对于第一次会议，波音公司的代表已经同意参加，并且已经与摩托罗拉、英特尔、IBM 和惠普的个人进行了接触。 物理系、电气与计算机工程系、计算机科学系和工业工程系的教职人员也有望参与。来自该地区和更广泛领域的其他大学的教师和学生将被邀请参加。该会议系列将得到数学科学部应用数学项目和基础设施项目以及数学和物理科学理事会多学科活动办公室的共同支持。
