Mathematical
Modeling and simulation is the language of modern science. In recent decades
boundaries between different fields of study have started disappearing and
research is increasingly exploring holistic systems rather than remaining
confined to old demarcations of fields. This has been possible due to emergence
of fields like Non-linear deterministic and Stochastic modeling and computer
simulation and their applications to complex Environmental, Ecological,
Biological, Brain, Social and Engineering systems, where concepts such as
instability, bifurcation, chaos, time delay, time series, pattern formation,
evolution, network chains, synergistic competition, limit cycle, oscillation,
sensitivity analysis, etc. play significant role.
In view of
this it seems desirable that the scope of the present activities of the society
be broadened to include above mentioned and related activities. Thus it has been
decided that the ‘SOCIETY’ be rechristened as ‘ACADEMY’ and renamed as “INDIAN
ACADEMY FOR MATHEMATICAL MODELING & SIMULATION”.
The Indian Academy for
Mathematical Modeling and Simulation (IAMMS) aims to promote the application of
Mathematical Modeling and Simulation in all branches of knowledge. To achieve
this objective, the Academy organizes conferences, symposia, seminars and
training programmes on a regular basis to facilitate dissemination of research
conducted in the areas of Mathematical Modeling and Simulation, and to promote
intellectual exchange among practitioners of the science and art of Mathematical
Modeling and Simulation. At a later stage the Academy can also take lead to
start Research Centers, Research Institutes or even Research Universities by
using the present day internet/communication tools.
It is a
Registered body with Headquarters at Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur.
Imadegawa
Campus, Doshisha University, Kyoto, Japan
(http://jsmbcjk2015.webcrow.jp/en/index.html),
its Multinational EC
has announced in its general body meeting, the inclusion of INDIA as
the new member into the Colloquium with IAMMS as its first Indian
representative body. Henceforth the Colloquium will be called as: "China-India-Japan-Korea
Colloquium on Mathematical Biology (CIJKCMB). It has also been
decided that the 6th CIJKCMB event will be held at IIT Kanpur during
Aug, 2017.
