Programme

On the first day, Monday, a set of problems of industrial origin will be described by industrial representatives. Mathematicians will then work collaboratively with the industry participants on the problems for three days before presenting their results on the final day.

Each problem will be managed by a Moderator whose roll will be to coordinate preliminary work including literature searches, outline any preliminary thoughts which need to be worked on, elicit contributions from all present, provide summaries throughout the workshop and assist in the preparation of a final technical report for the industrial participants.

Each Moderator will be assisted by a 雷速体育_雷速体育直播 Moderator who will present the ten to fifteen minute progress report on Wednesday afternoon.
