Title: (Annual report of the Board on Mathematical Sciences)

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6686398

This is a progress report on the activities of the Board on Mathematical Sciences (BMS) of the Commission on Physical Sciences, Mathematics, and Applications, National Research Council (NRC), for the first year of the above referenced grant for Board core support, and a request to the Department of Energy (DOE) for the second year of funding in the amount of $31,110 under that grant for the period August 1, 1990--July 31, 1991. In awarding this grant in 1989, the DOE and other member agencies of the Interagency Committee on Extramural Mathematics Programs (ICEMAP) established levels of total ICEMAP core support for the Board over the referenced three-year period and corresponding levels of total support and support by year from the six participating ICEMAP agencies (AFOSR, ARO, DOE, NSA, NSF, and ONR). The amount requested herein and the activities proposed for the coming second year of support correspond to those set in 1989 during deliberations on the three-year proposal. As this request is for the second year of funding for activities covered by a three-year proposal and award, this report is limited to an update of progress over the first year and plans for the second year. As the original proposal provided a progress report through calendar year 1988 and plans for calendar year 1989, this report presents the progress for 1989 to March 1990, and plans for 1990--1991. The Board, with its committees and panels, expended considerable energy along several fronts in 1989. This will result in the release of 18 publications, in addition to the anticipated start-up of five new studies leading to reports.
