Program

There is something for everybody at this year's conference. Our program is geared for beginning Mathematica users as well as longtime users and developers of Mathematica applications, with separate tracks to serve different audiences.

Novice users will be able to participate in many hands-on workshops and step-by-step tutorials. Those with advanced knowledge will experience the latest solutions and technologies. Attendees with a business focus will hear how Mathematica can be a vital part of an organization's IT infrastructure.

And of course, there will be plenty of opportunity to hear how Mathematica users around the world are solving problems with Mathematica.
