Summary
The Society for the Foundations of Computational Mathematics supports and promotes fundamental research in computational mathematics and its applications, interpreted in the broadest sense. It fosters interaction among mathematics, computer science and other areas of computational science through its conferences, workshops and publications. As part of this endeavour to promote research across a wide spectrum of subjects concerned with computation, the Society brings together leading researchers working in diverse fields. Major conferences of the Society have been held in Park City (1995), Rio de Janeiro (1997), Oxford (1999), Minneapolis (2002), and Santander (2005). The next conference is expected to be held in 2008. More information about FoCM is available at its website http://www.focm.net.
The conference in Santander on June 30 – July 9, 2005, was attended by several hundred scientists. FoCM conferences follow a set pattern: mornings are devoted to plenary talks, while in the afternoon the conference divides into a number of workshops, each devoted to a different theme within the broad theme of foundations of computational mathematics. This structure allows for a very high standard of presentation, while affording endless opportunities for cross-fertilization and communication across subject boundaries.
