Chebfun and Beyond Conference September 2012
CHEBFUN AND BEYOND
Oxford University, 17-19 September 2012
Please click here for the full and up to date Conference Website.
A workshop devoted to algorithms and mathematics for numerical computation with functions instead of numbers, building on the success of Chebfun, and reaching towards computing with functions in higher dimensions.
The workshop will run for the full three days in St Antony's College, Oxford, with a drinks reception and banquet in Wadham College hall on the 18th September. The costs are heavily subsidized, and the number of attendees limited to 130. If you plan to attend and would like to reserve a place, please tell us now with a message to conference [-at-] chebfun [dot] org. A fuller registration procedure will be set up shortly.
