Hi Quanta
This week there is a conference at BU, XXVI IUPAP Conference on Computational Physics,
CCP2014. It will take place at the George Sherman Union on Comm Ave at BU. On Wednesday
morning there are two plenary talks of interest. There may be other talks or sessions of
interest but I am highlighting these.
