Welcome

ACAT Final Project Meeting

When: July 6-10, 2015
Where: IST Austria, Klosterneuburg, Austria

Introduction

The last fifteen years have witnessed the emergence of Computational Topology from humble beginnings to a vibrant research enterprise, fueled from at least two sides: strong mathematical foundations and timely applications.

This meeting focuses on three areas:

• topological data analysis,
• stochastic topology, and
• topology of concurrency and distributed computing.

While the core of the field is mathematical, it thrives on the interaction with other disciplines, including computing, neuroscience, biology, material science, and others.
