News and events

On June 13, the II International Seminar "Computing Technologies and Applied Mathematics" opened on the basis of Amur State University. Researchers from Russia, Germany, Belarus, Egypt, China and Uzbekistan take part in this event.

The seminar is co-organized by Amur State University, Far Eastern Federal University, Tomsk State University and the Institute of Applied Mathematics of the Far Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The local organizer is the laboratory of mathematical modeling of complex physical and biological systems of AmSU.

— This landmark event for the scientific community brought together experts and young scientists. The organizers said that the participants will exchange the latest results and original ideas for the use of computing technologies and tools of applied mathematics in fundamental and applied research.

In five days, almost 100 reports will be presented at the seminar sections. Both young, promising scientists and well-known professors in the scientific community will work at the seminar. Participants will present research in promising areas such as intelligent data analysis, mathematical modelling, optimization modelling, computer modeling, computational algorithms, computer systems design, etc.

Andrey Plutenko, the chairman of the organizing committee of the seminar, Rector of AmSU, said "Direct contacts, direct face-to-face scientific discussions are an important factor in the formation of new generations of young scientists. We hope that our seminar will fulfill this function and some of the younger guys will still be working in the Far East".

Evgeny Nurminsky, the chairman of the program committee of the seminar, Director of the Far Eastern Center of Mathematical Research, Professor, Doctor of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, also emphasized the importance of scientists' interaction and exchange of experience.

Evgeny Nurminsky said "Conferences, especially mathematical ones, have a special purpose. They bring up the most important thing in scientific progress — human resources. In about 20 years of the development of computational mathematics and computer technology, the performance for solving difficult problems has increased by about 3 billion times. A task that would have been solved 20 years ago and required about 120 years is now solved in a second. But that's not the most surprising thing. The most surprising thing is that 90% of the acceleration is not due to hardware and technical progress. This is the progress of computational mathematics. Therefore, human resources are the most important".
