What is SWI about?

One week (Monday to Friday) a group of 50 to 80 mathematicians from anywhere in the Netherlands and from abroad come together to tackle industrial problems.

Six companies present their problems on Monday. The group of mathematicians then devote the entire week aiming for solutions of the problems. By Friday the groups present their solution.

This is the 63rd Study Group Mathematics with Industry, following many earlier succesful events. Click Links for examples of proceedings and read more about SWI at the International Study Group Website

Aftermath: the proceedings

Six industrial problems have been addressed (see Problems) during the SWI week. Now, 10 months later, the full scientific proceedings are available: swibook08.pdf. A 35-page proceedings for laymen is available as well: swiboekje09.pdf (it is in Dutch and it is written by journalist Bennie Mols.)
