Le Bulletin du CRM<\/h1>\n
First appearing in June 1990, Le Bulletin du CRM<\/em> was published twice a year. With articles in French and English, it focused on news about the scientific activities of the CRM, including thematic programs, Aisenstadt Chair lectures, scientific prizes, the Grandes conf\u00e9rences publiques and other information relevant to the mathematical sciences.<\/div>\n<\/div>

Le Bulletin du CRM is returning in a new format<\/h2>

    Since 2007 the CRM has been organizing Industrial Problem Solving Workshops (IPSW), also called study groups in England or “Semaines d’\u00e9tudes math\u00e9matiques – entreprises et soci\u00e9t\u00e9 \u00bb in France. During an industrial problem solving workshop (in general lasting one week), academic researchers, students, and representatives of private or public institutions are gathered to study and solve concrete problems through mathematical methods. Thus the IPSW organizers must find enterprises or institutions willing to submit problems to the workshop and also find researchers willing to coordinate the work of teams tackling these problems. The organizers must publicize the IPSW so that enough graduate students will take part in it. The workshop begins with a plenary session where each enterprise or institution describes its problem and ends with another plenary session where each team presents the work carried out during the week. Between the two plenary sessions the teams work independently from one another, but in some cases all participants gather at the end of the second day (for instance) to present the advances made by the teams. We refer the reader to the following page for the problem descriptions and proceedings of all the Montreal IPSWs.<\/p>\n
