Geometric integration and computational mechanics @ FoCM'08

24-26 June 2008
Hong Kong, China

The workshop is part of the triennial conference organized by the society for Foundations of Computational Mathematics hosted by the City University of Hong Kong, June 16-26 2008.

At the workshop we wish to discuss recent advances in Geometric integration and computational mechanics
