Board on Mathematical Sciences

Abstract

The principal objectives of the Board on Mathematical Sciences are to maintain a national presence for mathematical sciences at the National Research Council and to maintain active awareness of research trends within and issues affecting the field. During the first three-year core funding period, the Board absorbed the work of the Committee on Applied and Theoretical Statistics, the Panel on Applied Mathematics Research Alternatives for the Navy, the U.S. National Committee for Mathematics, and the U.S. Commission on Mathematical Instruction; created advisory panels to the Air Force Office of Scientific Research and the National Security Agency and helped create the Mathematical Sciences in the Year 2000 Project; supervised and coordinated the work and publications of these groups; published six reports; organized and held three annual colloquia for mathematical sciences research.
