Professor of Mathematics Debra Boutin was recently elected as an officer of the Discrete Math Activity Group of the Society of Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM).
This activity group provides an opportunity to unify pure discrete mathematics and areas of applied research such as computer science, operations research, combinatorics and the social sciences. It organizes a biennial conference on discrete mathematics; co-sponsors the annual Symposium on Discrete Algorithms; and sponsors minisymposia at SIAM meetings and conferences.
