University of Pittsburgh

Computational Mathematics trends in science and engineering

A workshop, held at the University of Pittsburgh,
CANCELLED (May 21-22, 2020)

The problem of numerical solution of complicated, coupled systems of evolution equations arises in nearly every application of scientific and technological importance, from aerodynamics to material sciences, acoustics, climate change, groundwater transport, image processing, risk assessment and uncertainty quantification.

This workshop brings together experts from a wide range of mathematical communities to present their work in analysis, algorithmics, numerics, and computation applied to science and engineering applications.

There is no charge for attending the workshop, but interested parties should register.

Dining Options

There are several dining options throughout the Oakland area. I personally recommend Ali Baba (Middle Eastern), Peter's Pub (American), Fuel and Fuddle (American), or the Spice Island Tea House (Asian). The locations of these restarants are given in this map.
