DEPARTMENT OF APPLIED MATHEMATICS
- APPLIED SEMINAR SERIES 2007 -



The Seminar Series of the Department of Applied Mathematics, UNSW, Sydney is dedicated to the announcement, dissemination and discussion of research in mathematics and its applications. A fundamental aim of the Seminar Series is to feature lectures that inform in a manner that makes the subject accessible to the audience, including non-specialists.
