Computational Methods in Water Resources XIX International Conference June 17-22, 2012 at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
The XIX International Conference on Computational Methods in Water Resources (CMWR2012) was held at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign on June 17-21, 2012. Based upon overall attendance, the conference was a great success. There were 320 total attendees, which included approximately 110 students and 120 non-US participants representing 28 countries. Registration surpassed that of prior recent meetings in Barcelona (~ 240) and San Francisco (~ 270). There was a deliberate attempt to reach out to new communities of scholars, as represented by special sessions on Data-driven Approaches for Water Resources Forecasting and Knowledge Discovery, Computational Ecohydrology,and Modeling and Analytics for Hydrologic Impact Assessments due to Climate Change. Other special sessions of interest to DOE include: Advances in Heterogeneous Computing for Water Resources, Applying High-Performance Computing for Scientific Discovery within Real-World Problems, CO2 Sequestration, Hybrid Multiscale Models in Subsurface Flow and Transport, and Transforming Water Resource Management with Open-Source Community Tools. Many DOE scientists were involved in the conference as members of the scientific organizing committee, conveners of special sessions, and participants. A complete list of special sessions and other information is posted on the conference web site: http://cmwr2012.cee.illinois.edu. The conference proceedings are also freely available on-line at the web site.
