The IMSE
conferences offer opportunities to scientists from around the
world to present their most recent work and exchange ideas
on a powerful class of methodologies extensively used for solving mathematical models
of physical phenomena and processes. Earlier
IMSE conferences
were organized at Arlington, Texas (1985 and 1990),
Sendai, Japan (1993), Oulu, Finland (1996), Houghton, MI
USA (1998), Banff, Canada (2000), Saint-Etienne, France
(2002), Orlando, FL USA (2004), Niagara Falls, Canada
(2006).
Participation is open to all scientists and engineers
whose work makes use of analytic and numerical methods,
integral equations, ordinary and partial differential
equations, asymptotic and perturbation methods,
boundary integral techniques, conservation laws, hybrid
approaches, vortex methods, signal processing and image
analysis. One of the aims is to promote new research
tools and procedures that help link Mathematics, Applied Sciences and
Technology. As the tenth in a successful series of
conferences, IMSE2008 will provide an international
forum for communicating recent advances and an
opportunity for direct information exchange between
delegates from both academia and industry.
Participation in the Conference
will provide an
opportunity to visit Cantabria region, which has a long
and interesting history, dating back to the Paleolithic
period. Its personality and unquestionable beauty are
intimately linked to its spectacular physical geography.
Lying as it does between the mountains
and the sea, the
region offers a wide variety of landscapes: peaks and
forests, river valleys, meadows and mountains, beaches
and coastal cliffs with bays, coves and estuaries. But
Cantabria also offers great beauty inside. With over
5,000 documented natural caves, it is internationally
renowned as one of the regions with the greatest
speleological wealth.
The
campus of the University of Cantabria, where the conference
will take place, is situated near the beach and surrounded by parks.
Conferences and summer courses have a long tradition in Santander dating back to 1933.
