August 2005

10–12 17th Canadian Conference on Computational Geometry, The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences, University of Windsor, Windsor, Ontario, Canada. Information: email: gensci@fields.utoronto.ca.
17–19 Spatial/Temporal Modelling for Marine Ecological Systems, The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences, Dalhousie University, Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.

 
Description: The purpose of the workshop is to bring together researchers in statistics andmarine ecology interested in the development ofmodels for the analysis of the complex temporal/spatial data now becoming available. These data include, for example, animal tracking data as well as time series of biological variables from ocean observing systems. Advancements in marine ecology will be realized using these new observations, but not without the development and application of new statistical analysis techniques. Our over-riding goal is to review and further faciliate the identification of appropriate statistical methods and modeling approaches to address outstanding research questions.

 
Call for Papers: We invite participants to submit poster presentations. There will also be a limited number of oral presentations possible. Submitted abstracts should address one of the major conference themes.

Information: For Registration and Abstract Submission please contact Joanna Mills Flemming.

Important dates: Abstract Submission deadline: May 31, 2005. Registration deadline: June 15, 2005.

Information: email: gensci@fields.utoronto.ca; http://www. mathstat.dal.ca/.

17–19 Workshop on Profinite Groups and Applications, The Fields Institute for Research in Mathematical Sciences, Carleton University, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada.

Overview: The workshop will consist of a series of mini-courses by renowned specialists in profinite groups that should be accessible to graduate students and of use to researchers in group theory, number theory, algebraic geometry and related areas.

This section contains announcements of meetings and conferences of interest to some segment of the mathematical public, including ad hoc, local, or regional meetings, and meetings and symposia devoted to specialized topics, as well as announcements of regularly scheduled meetings of national or international mathematical organizations. A complete list of meetings of the Society can be found on the last page of each issue.

An announcement will be published in the Notices if it contains a call for papers and specifies the place, date, subject (when applicable), and the speakers; a second announcement will be published only if there are changes or necessary additional information. Once an announcement has appeared, the event will be briefly noted in every third issue until it has been held and a reference will be given in parentheses to the month, year, and page of the issue in which the complete information appeared. Asterisks (*) mark those announcements containing new or revised information.

In general, announcements of meetings and conferences held in North America carry only the date, title of meeting, place of meeting, names of speakers (or sometimes a general statement on the program), deadlines for abstracts or contributed papers, and source of further information. Meetings held outside the North American area may carry more detailed information. In any case, if there is any application deadline with respect to participation in the meeting, this fact should be noted. All communications on meetings and conferences in the mathematical sciences should be sent to the Editor of the Notices in care of the American Mathematical Society in Providence or electronically to notices@ams.org or mathcal@ams.org.

In order to allow participants to arrange their travel plans, organizers of meetings are urged to submit information for these listings early enough to allow them to appear in more than one issue of the Notices prior to the meeting in question. To achieve this, listings should be received in Providence eight months prior to the scheduled date of the meeting.

The complete listing of the Mathematics Calendar will be published only in the September issue of the Notices. The March, June/July, and December issues will include, along with new announcements, references to any previously announced meetings and conferences occurring within the twelve-month period following the month of those issues. New information about meetings and conferences that will occur later than the twelve-month period will be announced once in full and will not be repeated until the date of the conference or meeting falls within the twelve-month period.

The Mathematics Calendar, as well as Meetings and Conferences of the AMS, is now available electronically through the AMS website on the World Wide Web. To access the AMS website, use the URL: http://www. ams.org/.

22–24 ACM-SIAM Symposium on Discrete Algorithms (SODA), Radisson Hotel Miami, Miami, Florida.

Description: This symposium focuses on research topics related to efficient algorithms and data structures for discrete problems. In addition to the design of suchmethods and structures, the scope also includes their use, performance analysis, and themathematical problems related to their development or limitations. Performance analysesmay be analytical or experimental andmay address worstcase or expected-case performance. Studies can be theoretical or based on data sets that have arisen in practice and may address methodological issues involved in performance analysis.
