6th Samos Conference in Actuarial Science and Finance

June 3-6, 2010

The Department of Statistics & Actuarial – Financial Mathematics of the University of the Aegean is pleased to host the 6th Samos Conference in Actuarial Science and Finance, to be held on Samos,on June 3-6, 2010.

This event, jointly organized with the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, the Universite Catholique de Louvain and the Kobenhavns Universitet, provides a forum for state-of-the-art results and the latest advances in the area of actuarial science and finance. The meeting is open to people from Universities, Insurance Companies, Banks, Consulting Firms or Regulatory Authorities, interested in actuarial-financial mathematics.

A short course will take place before the conference (31st of May – 2nd of June, 2008 ) under the title: Financial Modeling with Levy Processes, by Rama Cont

The conference will be held in the town of Karlovassi, on the island of Samos. Samos is one of the most fortunate of the Greek islands in the Aegean Archipelago with its variety of natural beauties (Samos Potami), its long and rich history and its lively economy. The natural attractions of Samos do not stop at a few picturesque old ports or fine beaches. Samos also has rugged mountain scenery to offer the visitor and peaceful, fertile plains.

Samos's location played a great role in its development. It lies in the Eastern Aegean, very close to the coast of Asia Minor (to which it was joined until earthquakes brought about a separation), in the heart of Ionia, almost midway along the sea route that links Greece with Anatolia, the Black Lack Sea, Egypt and the Eastern Mediterranean.

Samos, the birthplace of Pythagoras, Aristarchus and Epicurus, is one of the biggest islands. Its unique natural, the climate and the archaeological interest have turned this island in a distinct resort and a historical treasure that gathers many tourists

MACOM-2010

13-14 September 2010

3rd International Workshop on Multiple Access Communications

Annual Scientific Event on Advances in Networking

13-14 September 2010, Barcelona, Spain

Web Site: http://www.csit-spb.ru/macom2010.html

Aims and Topics

Claude Shannon established the foundation for the discipline now known as "multi-user information theory" in his pioneering paper "Two-way Communication Channels" in 1961 and later Norman Abramson published his paper "The Aloha System - Another Alternative for Computer Communications" in 1970 which introduced the concept of multiple access using a shared common channel. Thereafter for more than 40 years of study, numerous elegant theories and algorithms have been developed for multiple access techniques.

In recent years, broadband wireless data networks (for instance, IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi, IEEE 802.16 WiMAX) are driving the development of telecommunication industry and beyond 3G (B3G) wireless systems are expected to provide a variety of multimedia services in a wide range of wireless and mobile environments. To use the scarce bandwidth resource of the wireless channel, it is necessary to design channel access control techniques for a large population of users (potentially hundreds of mobile stations).

The aim of this workshop is to discuss both multi-user communications theory and multiple access techniques and standardization activities in areas related to PHY and MAC layer protocols for contemporary networks and their interactions. We intend to provide the experts from both the academic institutes and industry with an opportunity to present their art-of-the-state results and exchange the ideas on multiple access techniques and related areas.
