Experimental science is evolving. With the advent of new technology, scientific facilities are collecting data at increasing rates and higher resolution. However, making sense of this data is becoming ...

The University of Chicago’s Division of the Physical Sciences is launching a PhD program in computational and applied mathematics, part of an expansion into a field at the intersection of big data and ...

Computational and applied mathematicians model phenomena from a wide variety of science and engineering disciplines and design computer algorithms to solve the resulting mathematical problems. Faculty ...

The Council of University Senate approved a new major in computational and applied mathematics (CAM) last Tuesday. The new interdisciplinary major combines courses from the mathematics, statistics, ...

Many aspects of modern applied research rely on a crucial algorithm called gradient descent. This is a procedure generally used for finding the largest or smallest values of a particular mathematical ...

Standard sequential time marching schemes limit parallelism to the spatial domain. With computer architectures growing in size and clock speeds remaining constant, speed-up must come from greater ...

The Optimisation and Algorithms (OA) Group conducts research and teaching in the theory and applications of Operations Research (OR). The group's foremost interest is in fundamental research in OR and ...
