*UNCERTAINTY IN COMPUTER MODELS 2010, July 12-14, 2010, Sheffield, UK*

Registration and abstract submission now open at 
http://mucm.group.shef.ac.uk/UCM2010.html


*Abstract submission deadline : 26th February*


The Uncertainty in Computer Models 2010 (UCM 2010) Conference will take 
place in Sheffield between 12th and 14th July 2010 and is open to 
everyone interested in all aspects of model uncertainty, both 
theoretical and practical.   The conference focuses on statistical 
methods to quantify and analyse the uncertainties in the predictions of 
computer models.

This conference is an initiative of the MUCM (Managing Uncertainty in 
Complex Models - http://mucm.group.sheffield.ac.uk) project.  Research 
in MUCM is concerned with all aspects of uncertainty in computer models, 
including the propagation of parameter uncertainty, model discrepancy, 
validation, sensitivity analysis and the calibration of models.

Uncertainty in computer models is an emerging and highly topical field 
of statistical research, with many challenges and an enormous range of 
applications. A warm welcome in Sheffield in July 2010 is promised to 
all participants!

Abstract submissions are invited for contributed talks and poster 
presentations.  For further information, registration and abstract 
submission details and deadlines, please visit our website
