The Ninth Mississippi State - UAB Conference on Differential Equations and Computational Simulations

“第九届密西西比州立大学- UAB微分方程与计算模拟会议”将于2012年10月4日至6日在密西西比州立大学McCool Hall举行，为期两天半。会议的网址是http://www.ccs.msstate.edu/deconf/de2012。会议的任务是提供一个联合论坛，让来自工业界、联邦实验室和学术界的数学家、科学家和工程师就微分方程的理论、应用和计算发展交换意见。今年会议的重点将放在反应扩散方程及其应用上。会议的主要目标是最佳地完成上述任务，同时促进微分方程和相关模拟的数学和计算分析的研究和教育。这次会议是由密西西比州立大学数学与统计系、计算科学中心（CCS）、高性能计算合作实验室（HPCC）成员中心和伯明翰阿拉巴马大学机械工程系共同努力的结果。该奖项为研究生和新近获得博士学位的学生提供旅行支持，让他们有机会展示自己的工作，与其他研究人员、教育工作者和实践者会面，了解拟议跨学科领域的最新发展，并产生新一代的数学模型和挑战。

The "Ninth Mississippi State - UAB Conference on Differential Equations and Computational Simulations" will be held for two and a half days during October 4-6, 2012 at McCool Hall at Mississippi State University, Mississippi State, Mississippi. The website for this conference is http://www.ccs.msstate.edu/deconf/de2012. The mission of the meeting is to provide a joint forum where mathematicians, scientists, and engineers from industry, federal laboratories, and academia can exchange ideas on theoretical, applied, and computational developments in differential equations. The emphasis of this year's conference will be on reaction-diffusion equations with applications. The primary objective of the conference is to optimally fulfill the aforestated mission, while at the same time to promote research and education in mathematical and computational analysis of differential equations and associated simulations. The conference is a collaborative endeavor between the Department of Mathematics and Statistics and the Center for Computational Sciences (CCS), a High Performance Computing Collaboratory (HPCC) member center, at Mississippi State University, and the Department of Mechanical Engineering at University of Alabama at Birmingham. This award provides travel support to graduate students and recent Ph.D.s for an opportunity to present their work, meet other researchers, educators and practitioners, learn about recent developments in the proposed interdisciplinary field, and produce a new generation of mathematical models and challenges.
