Conference on Frontiers in Applied and Computational Mathematics (FACM): Spring 2007

新泽西理工学院数学科学系和应用数学与统计中心将于2007年5月14日至16日组织并主办一场关于应用与计算数学前沿的大型会议。本次会议是一系列会议中的第四次会议，并将首次包括专门用于本科生研究的重要组成部分（5月14日本科生研究日）。前两次会议（2004年，2005年）汇集了400多名在数学生物学、流体力学、非线性波、高性能科学计算和应用统计学领域工作的应用数学家。第三届会议（2006年）聚焦数学流体动力学及其在工程和生物学中的应用，来自世界各地的100多名数学家齐聚一堂，交流并展示各自领域的最新进展。2007年应用与计算数学前沿会议的关键主题将是数学生物学和健康科学中困难的现实世界问题的数学建模，其中包括流体数学，线性和非线性波，高性能科学计算和应用统计学。受影响的技术领域包括光纤通信系统、海浪动力学和管道中的流体流动。会议将汇集来自美国和国外的著名数学家和科学家，他们将向大量观众展示他们最新的研究成果，其中还包括大量的本科生和研究生，博士后研究员和初级教师。会议安排了4位全体发言嘉宾和48位小型专题发言嘉宾。

The Department of Mathematical Sciences and the Center for Applied Mathematics and Statistics at the New Jersey Institute of Technology will be organizing and hosting a major conference on Frontiers in Applied and Computational Mathematics, May 14-16, 2007. This conference is the fourth in a series of conferences and for the first time it will include a significant component devoted to undergraduate student research (Undergraduate Research Day, May 14). The first two conferences (2004, 2005) brought together more than 400 applied mathematicians working at the frontiers of mathematical biology, fluid mechanics, nonlinear waves, high-performance scientific computing, and applied statistics. The third conference (2006) focused on mathematical fluid dynamics and its applications in engineering and biology, and brought together more than 100 mathematicians from around the world to interact and present the latest advances in their respective fields.The key theme of the 2007 Frontiers in Applied and Computational Mathematics conference will be the mathematical modeling of difficult real-world problems in mathematical biology and the health sciences with a significant component comprising of the mathematics of fluids, linear and nonlinear waves, high-performance scientific computing, and applied statistics. Among the impacted technological areas are fiber-optic communication systems, ocean-wave dynamics, and fluid flow in pipes. The conference will bring together renowned mathematicians and scientists from the US and abroad to interact as they present their latest research results to a large audience that also contains significant numbers of undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty. The program of the conference will have 4 plenary speakers and 48 minisymposium speakers.
