The 25th Annual Pacific Northwest Numerical Analysis Seminar

October 27, 2012

Boise State University - Boise, Idaho


The Department of Mathematics at Boise State University is very pleased to be hosting the 25th Pacific Northwest Numerical Analysis Seminar (PNWNAS). The goal of the meeting is to bring together interdisciplinary researchers from universities, government research labs, and industry from the Pacific Northwest to share expertise in both pure and applied aspects of numerical analysis and computational mathematics.

PNWNAS has been hosted annually since 1987 and this is the first time PNWNAS will be hosted in Idaho. We are also pleased to be able to include NSF and the Pacific Institute for Mathematical Sciences (PIMS) among our list of sponsors, as well as the Boise State Department of Mathematics.

We look forward to seeing you in Boise to help us celebrate 25 years of PNWNAS!
