15-17 October 2012,
Matematiska institutionen, Uppsala Universitet, Uppsala, Sweden
This URL for IPA 2012 is Evolving (it will move to CAPA domain)
About IPA 2012
The goal of IPA 2012 is to bring together researchers working on intervals, pavings and their applications, for sharing and exchanging the state-of-the-art techniques and ideas in this area toward the most promising new directions.
IPA 2012 aims to promote computational set-valued mathematics to solve problems in estimating, testing, controlling, planning, designing and verifying among others. Talks will be given by participants with plenty of time to interact informally.
Program
Invited participants will give workshops and talks on their areas of expertise. There will be plenty of time for informal interactions to facilitate cross-fertilization of ideas.
The research interactions will include the following sub-fields of interval analysis: affine arithmetic, constraint propagation, contractor programming, differential equations, dynamical systems, enclosure information structures, global optimization, parameter estimation, partial differential equations, polynomial arithmetic, randomized enclosure algorithms, semi-definite programming, state estimation, Taylor models, etc.
About Uppsala – the university city
Uppsala is Sweden's fourth largest city with a population of 190 000 inhabitants. Unique cultural treasures and an exciting history are to be found in the city of knowledge and inspiration. Uppsala has retained its small-town charm while offering a big city's selection of shops, restaurants and other entertainment.
Uppsala has many historical attractions. Among the most famous are:
• Uppsala cathedral, the largest cathedral in Scandinavia.
• One of Sweden's eldest botanical gardens
• A unique anatomical theatre built in the 1600’s
• The Linnaeus Garden
• Uppsala Castle from the mid-1500's
However, Uppsala is not only known for its traditions. Today Uppsala is a dynamic industrial and commercial city where knowledge, ideas and entrepreneurship are at the centre. The city's geographical location with only 30 minutes to Stockholm-Arlanda international airport and 40 minutes to Stockholm has made Uppsala an attractive place for meetings.
