  • The Statistical Physics of Inference and Control Theory workshop will take place September 12-16 2012. The workshop will take place in the beautiful Albaycin area of Granada, which is on the Unesco world heritage list. This will be a unique small workshop on the interface of statistical mechanics and control theory. In this meeting, we wish to explore links between robotics, stochastic optimal control, non-equilibrium systems, large deviations and stochastic descriptions of quantum mechanics. See http://www.snn.ru.nl/cyberstat_granada/ for details.

    Announcements of Schools

  • NECSI Summer School will take place June 4-15,2012 at MIT in Cambridge, MA
    TARGET AUDIENCE
    These courses are intended for faculty, graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, professionals and others who would like to gain an understanding of the fundamentals of complex systems for application to research in their respective fields, or as a basis for pursuing complex systems research. The summer school offers two intensive week-long courses. The courses consist of lectures, discussions, and supervised group projects. Though the second week builds on material covered in the previous week, CX201 is not a prerequisite for CX202. You may register for either or both weeks. If desired, arrangements for credit at a home institution may be made in advance. See course descriptions below or online at: http://www.necsi.edu/education/school.html
    June 4-8, 2012 Complex Physical, Biological & Social Systems
    June 10, 2012 Computer Programming and Complex Systems
    June 11-15, 2012 Complex Systems Modeling and Networks

  • NSF PIRE Summer School: "New frontiers in multiscale analysis and computing for materials" will take place June 21-29, 2012 at the Institute for Mathematics and its Applications (IMA), Minneapolis. For more information see: http://www.ima.umn.edu/2011-2012/SW6.21-29.12/

  • An intensive 4-day short course on the fundamentals of continuum, atomistic and multiscale modeling of materials will be held at AICES in Aachen, Germany, August 14-17, 2012. The course will be taught by Professors Ellad Tadmor and Ronald Miller. Please see the attached flyer for more information.

  • Enrollment is limited so early registration is recommended. To register, visit http://www.modelingmaterials.org/short-courses Modeling Materials Short Course, Aachen, Germany, August 14-17, 2012.
