Takes place from 8 – 12 October 2012. This workshop forms part of GER-RSA Year of Science 2012 – 2013 programme of activities. In the presentations students and faculty will be introduced to recent developments of discrete (differential) geometry with applications to computer graphics and mathematical visualization. The courses and hands-on exercises are aimed at students with
At base nature obeys quantum mechanical law and it is therefore natural to ask if the building blocks of computers and communication systems should have their “bits” replaced by “qubits” which collectively obey the laws of quantum physics. This possibility has uprooted many of the fundamental tenets of computer science and information science. The School
This is the 5th Summer School in Mathematical Finance to be held at AIMS and it will once again bring several leading academic exponents of the fast-growing field of Mathematical Finance to South Africa. It presents a unique opportunity for local practitioners, academics and students to interact with international leaders in research on topics and modelling
