Conference on the Foundations of Computational Mathematics 2017

2017国际计算数学基础大会是成功系列的第九届，将于2017年7月10日至7月19日在西班牙巴塞罗那举行。该奖项资助至少20名美国初级参与者参加会议，其中包括研究生、博士后研究员和早期职业终身教职跟踪教师。这次会议有17位全体演讲者，其中8位来自美国，还有21个研讨会，初级参与者将能够发表演讲或帖子。不断增加的计算能力的影响改变了数学和计算之间的关系。新的应用，如加密、大规模数据管理和信号/图像处理，不可避免地导致了对计算工具本身的研究，创造并重振了丰富的数学学科。数学家现在越来越认识到，除了作为数值和实验工具的价值外，计算本身也是一种重要的理论工具。这次会议的目的是加深对数学和计算之间的联系的理解，包括纯数学和应用数学、数值分析和计算机科学之间的接口。这反映在21个研讨会涵盖的多样化和充满活力的研究领域，这些研讨会由世界专家组织，其中包括许多来自美国的专家。这一奖项有助于许多美国年轻研究人员参加这一著名而令人兴奋的会议。会议网址：http://www.ub.edu/focm2017/

The International Conference on the Foundations of Computational Mathematics 2017 is the ninth of a successful series and will be held in Barcelona, Spain from July 10 to July 19, 2017. This award funds the attendance at the meeting of at least twenty junior U.S. participants, including graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and early career tenure track faculty. The conference features seventeen plenary speakers, eight of whom are from the US, and 21 workshops where the junior participants participants will be able to present a talk or a poster.The impact of constantly increasing computational power has changed the relationship between mathematics and computation. New applications such as encryption, large scale data management, and signal/image processing, inevitably led to the study of the computational tools themselves, creating and reinvigorating a rich spectrum of mathematical disciplines. Mathematicians now increasingly recognize that, besides its value as a numerical and experimental tool, computation is a significant theoretical tool in its own right. This conference aims to further the understanding of the connections between mathematics and computation, including the interfaces between pure and applied mathematics, numerical analysis and computer science. This is reflected in the diverse and vibrant research areas covered by the 21 workshops which are organized by world experts, including many from the US. This award is instrumental in enabling the participation of many US young researchers at this renowned and exciting conference.Conference website: http://www.ub.edu/focm2017/
