Conferences on Frontiers in Applied and Computational Mathematics: 2011-2013

研究人员在位于新泽西纽瓦克的新泽西理工学院（NJIT）的校园内组织了一次关于应用和计算数学前沿（FACM）的年度会议。会议包括本科生和研究生，博士后研究员和初级教师的重要参与。FACM系列会议在过去的七年里一直由NJIT的数学科学系和应用数学与统计中心组织。该会议已成为传播应用和计算数学以及应用统计研究的主要论坛。2011-2013年的三年会议计划如下：FACM 2011（预计250-300名与会者）侧重于声学，电磁学，流体和生物学中的波传播。FACM 2012年和2013年（预计150-200名与会者）将分别集中在流体动力学和生物学/生物统计学的应用会议。该会议系列汇集了数学家，统计学家，物理学家，工程师和生物学家，分享他们在应用和计算数学以及应用统计学方面的研究成果。更广泛的影响是，使用应用数学、统计学和数值计算方法的不同学科的研究人员在会议期间和会议之后进行了大量的交流。对于学生和博士后来说，这是一个重要的学习经验，有助于他们未来的演讲和研究。这种经验有助于学生模仿这些研究活动的质量。过去的FACM会议在妇女和代表人数不足的少数民族的参与方面有着良好的记录，PI正在努力保持这一趋势。http://m.njit.edu/Events/FACM11

The investigators organize an annual conference on Frontiers in Applied and Computational Mathematics (FACM) on the campus of the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) in Newark, New Jersey. The conferences include the significant participation of undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and junior faculty. The FACM conference series has been organized over the past seven years by the Department of Mathematical Sciences and the Center for Applied Mathematics and Statistics at NJIT. The conference has become a leading forum for the dissemination of research in applied and computational mathematics and applied statistics. The three year conference plan for 2011-2013 is as follows: FACM 2011 (250-300 participants expected) has a focus on wave propagation in acoustics, electromagnetics, fluids and biology. FACM 2012 and 2013 (150-200 participants expected) will be meetings focused on applications in fluid dynamics and biology/biostatistics, respectively.This conference series brings together mathematicians, statisticians, physicists, engineers, and biologists to share results of their research in applied and computational mathematics and applied statistics. The broader impacts are that significant cross-fertilization takes place during and after the conferences between researchers in different disciplines who use the methods of applied mathematics, statistics and numerical computation. For students and postdocs, this is a major learning experience that helps them with future presentations and research. This experience helps students emulate the quality of these research activities. Past FACM conferences have an excellent record of participation of women and underrepresented minorities, and the PIs are making efforts to continue this trend.The web link for the conference series is: http://m.njit.edu/Events/FACM11
