The Japan Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (JSIAM) was established in April 1990 to support and collaborate with activities related to applied mathematics research, industry, and education in Japan. The specialized fields of the members of this society are extremely diverse, including mathematics, physics, chemistry, electricity/electronics, machinery, materials, architecture, information processing, communication, measurement/control, system engineering, ergonomics, and management. Leading researchers and engineers in the field gather for active engagement in research and development and dissemination, mutual cooperation and fellowship among members, and international exchanges to link applied mathematics to research, industry, and education.
