CEMRACS

​Centre d’Eté Mathématique de Recherche Avancée en Calcul Scientifique

CEMRACS stands for Centre d’Eté Mathématique de Recherche Avancée en Calcul Scientifique or « Advanced research in scientific calculation ».
This summer school, created in 1996 on the initiative of Yvon Maday and Frédéric Coquel,  plays a vital part in knowledge transfer between academic and industrial mathematics.

New CEMRACS groups meet every summer at Cirm during six weeks and focus on a different theme linked to scientific calculation. The format of this summer school is usually the following:
– a first week dedicated to lectures to find out about the state-of-the-art in that particular topic and to learn about its latest developments.
– five weeks focusing in small groups on projects that can be academically or industrially based.

Industry provides some specific modelling or numerical simulation problems and small groups of young researchers try to find a suitable answer, with the help of established researchers in the field.

Taking a mathematical approach to tackle these problems with a mathematical approach often leads to interesting advances that businesses can exploit later on. Among the companies which sponsored some of the projects are L’Oréal, ANDRA, CEA, the Institut Français du Pétrole, Bosch etc.

CEMRACS is organized by the SMAI and not subsidized by Cirm but its international Scientific Committee has to approve the proposal. Furthermore, as for all long programmes at Cirm (e.g. Jean-Morlet Chair and Thematic Month) we ask the organizers of CEMRACS activities to present their proposal in person or via video conferencing. Note that the presentation should be prepared in English.
