5th Porto Meeting on MATHEMATICS for INDUSTRY
10th and 11th April 2014
About the Meeting
The purpose of this meeting is to focus the attention
on the many and varied opportunities to promote
applications of mathematics to industrial problems. Its
major objectives are:
- Development and encouragement of industrial and
academic collaboration, facilitating contacts between
academic, industrial, business and finance users of
mathematics
- Through "bridging the industrial/academic barrier"
these meetings will provide opportunities to present
successful collaborations and to elaborate elements
such as technology transfer, differing vocabularies
and goals, nurturing of contacts and resolution of
issues.
- To attract undergraduate students to distinctive and
relevant formation profiles, motivate them during
their study, and advance their personal training in
Mathematics and its Applications to Industry, Finance,
etc.
The meeting will be focused on short courses, of three
one-hour lectures each, given by invited distinguished
researchers, which are supplemented by contributed short
talks by other participants and posters of case studies.
This edition is especially dedicated to
Combinatorial Optimization in
Industry
