Pacific Northwest Numerical Analysis Seminar 2012

博伊西州立大学将于2012年10月26日至27日举办第25届年度太平洋西北数值分析研讨会。 会议的目标是汇集来自太平洋西北地区的大学，政府研究实验室和行业的跨学科研究人员，分享数值分析和计算数学的纯和应用方面的专业知识。为期一天的周六邀请会谈的传统形式将被修改，包括周五晚上的海报会议，学生和博士后研究员介绍他们的工作。 这将创建一个垂直整合的会议，将从本科生到杰出的研究人员的个人聚集在一起。 来自国家实验室和工业界的参与者的加入将为扩大学生和博士后的存在培养新的潜在研究和就业机会。博伊西州立大学多年来一直作为本科教学机构，最近一直在教师，员工和基础设施方面进行关键投资，以过渡到以研究为导向的机构。太平洋西北数值分析研讨会将是有史以来第一次在博伊西州立大学举行的会议在这一领域的数学，并将有助于加强计算数学，这是需要在美国这个代表性不足的地区教育技术劳动力最近开发的基础。 将有发言人的工作：（1）与生物和数学科学的接口;（2）涉及能源的可持续性;（3）侧重于挑战？大数据？及（4）有关网络基础设施的发展。 发言者将包括高级和初级教师，女性研究人员/教育工作者和研究生。 除了标准的沟通渠道，研讨会将通过博伊西州立大学的女工程师协会，西班牙裔专业工程师协会和太平洋西北部路易斯斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟（LSAMP）财团的学生分会推广，以扩大代表性不足的群体的参与。

Boise State University will host the 25th Annual Pacific Northwest Numerical Analysis Seminar October 26-27, 2012. The goal of the meeting is to bring together interdisciplinary researchers from universities, government research labs, and industry from the Pacific Northwest to share expertise in both pure and applied aspects of numerical analysis and computational mathematics. The traditional format of a day-long Saturday session for invited talks will be modified to include a Friday evening poster session for students and postdoctoral fellows to present their work. This will create a vertically integrated meeting bringing together individuals from undergraduates to distinguished researchers. The inclusion of participants from national labs and industry will foster new potential research and employment opportunities for a broadened presence of students and postdocs.Boise State University, which for many years served as an undergraduate teaching institution, has recently been making key investments in faculty, staff, and infrastructure to transition into a research-oriented institution. The Pacific Northwest Numerical Analysis Seminar will be the first conference ever held at Boise State University in this area of mathematics, and will help strengthen the recently developed foundation in computational mathematics that is needed to educate a technological workforce in this underrepresented region of the US. There will be speakers whose work: (1) interfaces with the biological and mathematical sciences; (2) involves energy sustainability; (3) focuses on the challenges of ?big-data?; and (4) concerns the development of cyberinfrastructure. Speakers will include senior and junior faculty, women researchers/educators, and graduate students. In addition to standard communication channels, the seminar will be promoted through the Boise State University student chapters of the Society of Women Engineers, the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers, and the Pacific Northwest Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation (LSAMP) consortium to broaden participation from underrepresented groups.
