Registration is required for participation in the conference.
This year s conference will feature more than 70 speakers and more than 100 specialists in the field of mathematics. As interest in the field has grown, the conference has grown also, now expanded to a full week. The concepts of Monte Carlo mathematics involve the measuring of risks, as in gambling, but in its initial application, in predicting the outcomes of a large number of individual physical interactions, such as nuclear fission. Scientists used Monte Carlo theory to calculate the critical size needed for a self-sustaining nuclear reaction in order to build effective nuclear bombs. The same Monte Carlo mathematics has been used to design nuclear reactors for safely harnessing the energy stored at the atomic level in fissionable materials.
