This two week intensive learning experience is designed to give graduate students in the Mathematical Sciences an opportunity to learn industrial mathematical modelling techniques under the guidance of renowned industrial researchers. Graduate...

Randomness pervades the biochemical processes that make up life at the cellular level; variations in the dynamic behaviour of cellular processes have been observed even if cells are genetically identical and located in identical environments...

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...

At the turn of the new millennium the Clay Institute in Boston had a small group of eminent mathematicians propose what they thought would be the seven most important mathematical questions for the 21st century. The prize for solving any of these...

Palaeontology has traditionally focused on describing new fossils and determining the relationships and evolutionary history of extinct life forms. Sometimes, it even attempts to understand how the unusual animals of the past would have gone about...

A common problem in seismic interpretation is the search for discontinuities such as faults. The usual approach to identifying these features is the coherency method (Bahorich and Farmer, 1995). The phase congruency algorithm detects corners and...
