This year's Changing The Culture Conference is linked with the 2010 CMESG meeting, which will be taking place at SFU Burnaby from May 21st to 25th.

This year's Sharing Math Conference follows the BCCUPMS articulation meeting (May 18-19) and proceeds the Changing the Culture Conference (May 21) which is linked with the 2010 CMESG meeting taking place at SFU Burnaby May 21-25.

Electrical Energy Systems are on the edge of a significant revolution in their operation and planning. Great interest is being directed towards increased integration of renewable or "clean" energy sources such as wind- and solar-based generation, and...

We consider optimal control problems with control appearing linearly. The evaluation of the Pontryagin Minimum Principle shows that optimal controls are composed of bang-bang and singular arcs. Values of bang-bang controls switch discontinuously...

The Canadian Young Researchers Conference in Mathematics and Statistics (CYRC) is an annual event that provides a unique forum for young mathematicians across Canada to present their research and to collaborate with their peers. All young academics...

We first introduce the background and motivation of Hamiltonian systems and symplectic geometry. The basic ideas and the key steps on developing symplectic geometric algorithms are presented. Applications of symplectic geometric methods for...

The size effects at micro/nano-scale are first discussed. The scale invariance and the applications in mathematical modeling at nano-scale is then presented. An important concept such as the scale gap is introduced and we particularly discuss the...

There is a long-standing assumption that more effective mathematics teaching is linked to taking more courses in mathematics. Unfortunately, despite extensive efforts, there is virtually no proof to support this suspicion. That dearth of evidence has...
