The Dynamical Systems Track at ICIAM 2011 in Vancouver

In July of 2011, the semi-annual ICIAM took place in Vancouver, British Columbia in Canada. As part of the mathematical program of ICIAM, the SIAM Activity Group on Dynamical Systems sponsored a track of minisymposia. Evelyn Sander describes some highlights.

The end of theory?

This is an adaptation of a radio episode from the NPR program Engines of Our Ingenuity. It was inspired by a recent article in Wired on the program eureqa which "discovered" Newton's laws of motion - are Dynamical Systems' analysts becoming obsolete?
