DGS 2013 – International Conference and Advanced School Planet Earth, Dynamics, Games and Science, Portugal, 26 August to 7 September 2013.

General

Organized by The International Center of Mathematics CIM - Portugal

http://sqig.math.ist.utl.pt/cim/mpe2013/School_DGS

08/26/13 - 09/07/13

Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation (FCL) and Escola Superior de Economia e Gestão, Universidade Técnica de Lisboa (ISEG-UTL), Lisbon, Portugal.

Dynamics, Games and Science

The international conference will have around 10 keynote speakers and 20 thematic sessions with an approximated total of 100 speakers. The keynote speakers are top researchers in mathematics and science whose discoveries had a great impact in the progress of science. All the speakers will be top researchers, including promising young researchers, who already have major contributions in their fields of knowledge. Each thematic session will have an organizer and 2-4 speakers that can include the organizer. The thematic sessions will occur during the international conference and the corresponding advanced school.

CIM-MPE events were announced at:

–ICIAM newsletter January 2013
–EMS newslette March 2013
