Overview

In the past years, several local industries have generated demand for research and innovation in order to be competitive and access both local and international markets and to grow. Many and new entrepreneurs are demanding technology solutions and innovation to create new markets and businesses. Using Scientific Computing and Industrial modeling for design, simulation, analysis, prototyping and development of technology solutions creates very low cost alternative for Research, Development and innovation and serves as an innovation accelerator, shrinking time-to-insight and time-to-discovery. This provides the possibility for low resourced economies to create innovations that are competitive at very affordable costs.

The aim of the conference is to provide a forum to facilitate communication for mathematicians, Scientists and industry partners from varying disciplines to share cutting edge Mathematical concepts and state-of-the-art scientific computing resources to deliver cost-effective technology solutions.

Theme

Scientific Computing and Industrial modeling; a tool for accelerating innovation

Scope of the conference

Authors are invited to submit abstracts of manuscripts that present original research in all areas of Scientific Computing and Industrial modeling, including the development of experimental or commercial systems. Work focusing on emerging technologies is especially welcome. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: High performance computing, Reservoir simulation, Imaging and Computer Vision, Data visualization, Biomathematical Modeling, Biogeochemical Modeling, Distributed and Grid Computing, Monte Carlo simulation, Computational Fluid Dynamics, Computational Finance, Nonlinear Optimization.

Launching of NIMS Centre of Excellence in Scientific and Technical Computing

In the last four years, the National institute for Mathematical Sciences, the umbrella institute for Mathematical Sciences in Ghana has been focusing on setting up a Center of Excellence in Scientific computing and Industrial Modelling. Participants of the conference will also have an opportunity to witness the official launching of the centre and its activities.
