The International Conference on Advanced Mathematical and Computational Tools in Metrology and Testing. (AMCTM 2011) will be arranged in Göteborg, Sweden, Chalmers University of Technology, 20-22 June, 2011.
This is an event of IMEKO TC21 “Mathematical Tools for Measurements” supported and organised by SP Sveriges Tekniska Forskningsinstitut Chalmers University of Technology and supported by EURAMET Focus Group “Software & Mathematical Tools for Metrology”.
The conference general aims are:
- To present and promote reliable and effective mathematical and computational tools in metrology.
- To understand better the modelling, statistical and computational requirements in metrology;
- To provide a forum for metrologists, mathematicians and software engineers that will encourage a more effective synthesis of skills, capabilities and resources.
- To promote collaboration in the context of EU and International Programmes.
- To support young researchers in metrology and related fields, also through training.
- To address industrial requirements.
- To cover both fields of calibration and testing
Venue
The AMCTM 2011 Conference venue will be the Chalmers Conference Centre at Chalmers University of Technology, Göteborg, Sweden.
Registration cost
The expected approximate registration fee to AMCTM 2011 for the three-day events is € 400 (plus VAT for Swedish participants) (possible discounts and grants to be decided later). This covers coffee breaks, lunches and one copy of the book AMCTM IX. Payment information will be supplied in due time. Early bird registration will be possible.
Accommodation
A list of hotels close to the venue and at different cost levels will be supplied together with public transportation information. Each participant has to arrange his/her own hotel accommodations in
Göteborg.
Abstract submission
- Authors intending to contribute to AMCTM 2011 are invited to submit an abstract (max 2 A4 pages) to the Conference Scientific Secretary, in the MS Word or LaTeX style that can be found for the 9.00” x 6.00” book format under http://www.worldscientific.com/style/proceedings_style.shtml, for review by the International Programme Committee. Authors can indicate their preference (oral or poster), but the final decision is taken by the IPC.
- Submission of abstract of papers for oral/poster presentation: closing 28 February 2011
- Submission is by e-mail to: amctm2011@sp.se Indicate the subject “AMCTM2011 abstract"
- Submission of late abstracts for posters will be allowed until 30 April 2011.
Scientific program
- Fundamentals in measurement (basic and new methods for metrology and testing)
- Data analysis, inference (Bayesian, frequentist, fiducial, etc) and uncertainty
evaluation (key comparisons, outliers, systematic effects, guidelines, etc). (Joint EURAMET Focus Group/ IMEKO Session)
- Continuous modelling and inverse problems (partial differential equations) (Joint
EURAMET Focus Group/IMEKO Session)
- Energy: Mathematical and Computational Tools –a metrological challenge
- Environment: Mathematical and Computational Tools –the role of metrology
and testing (for meteorology, in analytical chemistry, etc)
- Analysis of ordinal data in metrology and testing (counting in ionising radiation,
health, biology, industry, etc)
- Metrology of perceptional and qualitative quantities (perception measures,
uncertainty in qualitative measurements, etc)
- Measurement software and internet metrology (software validation, measurement
software, networking, etc)
- Metrology, calibration and testing (issues in measuring specific quantities in
calibration, issues in testing, etc)
- Industrial statistics and metrological traceability (equivalence, traceability,
experimental design, process analytical technologies (PAT), etc)
- Written standards for metrology and testing (nomenclature guides, decision
making, extension to qualitative measures, inter-consistency of prescriptive standards)
