FINAL ANNOUNCEMENT - CALL FOR PAPERS

THE NINTH HELLENIC EUROPEAN RESEARCH ON

COMPUTER MATHEMATICS AND ITS APPLICATIONS CONFERENCE

*** H E R C M A 2009 CONFERENCE ***

Athens, 24-26 September 2009

Framework-Objectives: The 9th Hellenic European Research on Computer Mathematics & its Applications (HERCMA) Conference will be held in the Athens University of Economics & Business (AUEB) on September 24-26, 2009, in Athens, Greece. This biennial Conference is following the success of the HERMIS and HERCMA Conference series, which has been held respectively in 1992-94-96-98-2001-2003-2005-2007 in Athens. The HERCMA 2009 Conference is jointly organised by the Department of Informatics of AUEB and the Research Group for Advanced Computational Mathematics & Parallel Processing. The main theme within the Conference will be Computer Mathematics and its Applications and special emphasis will be given to Computational Mathematics, High Performance Computing, Operational Research and Statistics, Mathematics in Economics and Industry.

Call for Papers: Papers on all aspects of Computer Mathematics and Scientific Computing are solicited. Plenary lectures by distinguished Scientists, who have played a significant role in the advancement of Computer Mathematics and its Applications, will be scheduled in the scientific program of HERCMA 2009. Non plenary lectures will be held in several parallel sessions, spanning a broad range of Computer Mathematics topics. The Authors should list areas to which their papers belong.

Mini-Symposia (Session) Organisers: Persons interested in organising a mini-symposium (technical session) in the framework of the HERCMA 2009 should submit a proposal using the suitable form (which can be found in the HERCMA web pages). If the proposed session is accepted for presentation at the conference, the Session Organiser will become member of the Organising Committee, and he will be authorised to make the final selection of papers for his session.

Conference Chairman: Professor Elias A. Lipitakis, Department of Informatics, AUEB, Director of the Research Group for Advanced Computational Mathematics and Parallel Processing (RG-ACMPP).
