Announcement: 2007 Delaware Chapter ASA Spring Symposium
Applications of Statistical Modeling and Simulation
Sponsored by
The Delaware Chapter of the American Statistical Association
Friday, April 27, 2007
Clayton Hall, University of Delaware
Bigger computers allow us to ask broader questions, but are the
answers any better? Join us for a tour of cutting edge methods of
simulation and modeling.
The Delaware Chapter of the American Statistical Association
invites you to attend a conference entitled "Applications of
Statistical Modeling and Simulation" to be held on April 27, 2007
at the Clayton Hall Conference Center at the University of
Delaware.
PROGRAM:
RISKS: We know things will go wrong...but how often? ...at what cost?
Probabilistic Risk Assessment
- John W. Green, DuPont Company
BIOLOGY: What tells some cancer cells to kill, and others to sleep?
Developing cancer therapies that prevent resistance and relapse"
- Carlo C. Maley, Wistar Institute
INDUSTRY: If we knew the answer, it would not be R&D.....
Use of Computer Simulation to Plan Complicated Industrial
Experiments - William Q. Meeker, Jr., Iowa State University
CARTOONING: If they are on MTV, why not at a statistics symposium?
Three rules of cartooning and Statistical Communication
- Woollcott Smith, Temple University
VALIDATION: Good Simulation means never having to say: "Well, it sounded
like a good idea at the time..." Validating Complex Simulations
- David Banks, Duke University
TERRORISM: Which targets are next? Modeling the Interaction between
Intelligent Site Selection and Other Stochastic Processes with
Applications to Terrorism - Michael D. Porter, North Carolina
State University
CLIMATE CHANGE: From the physics to the forecast, how can we be sure?
Statistical Issues in Climate Change Modeling
- Peter Huybers, Department of Earth and Planetary
Sciences, Harvard University
