Brown Applied Mathematics Report Released

Just recently released through SIAM, the Brown Report discusses how the U.S. Department of Energy wants applied mathematics to evolve to fit the its needs. One of the panel members, J. Tinsley Oden, is the director of my applied mathematics program at U.T. The timing of the report is interesting — this past Friday we had several folks from Sandia on campus for a meeting as part of the PECOS center. The odds are pretty good that I'll spend next summer at Sandia.
