First Announcement

14th International Conference
Mathematical Modelling and Analysis

May 27 - 30, 2009, Daugavpils, Latvia

Conference organizers:

The European Consortium for Mathematics in Industry (ECMI)

Daugavpils University, Latvia

University of Latvia

Vilnius Gediminas Technical University, Lithuania

Aims

The Conference focuses on various aspects of mathematical modelling and usage of finite difference and finite element methods for numerical solution of modern problems of science and engineering. It aims, in particular, at fostering cooperation among practitioners and theoreticians in this field. Another very important goal of the MMA is to assist the creation and maintenance of contacts between scientists from the West and the East. Working language of the Conference is English.

The basic topics

Analysis of numerical methods for solving problems of mathematical physics;
Application of numerical methods to industrial and engineering problems;
Analysis of ODE and PDE problems and applications;
Parallel algorithms and parallel computing;
Computational Fluid Dynamics;
Image processing;
Financial mathematics and mathematics in economics;
Scientific computation

The scientific program includes invited plenary talks (40 min) and contributed talks (20 min).

We also invite participants to organize mini-symposiums. The format for a mini-symposium might be a principal lecture and a number of communications of 20 minutes given by the other speakers. The mini-symposia will be scheduled in parallel sessions.
