摘 要: | The 2nd Sino-German Workshop on Computational and Applied Mathematics took place in Hangzhou, China, from October 9-13, 2007. The long list of senior Chinese numerical analysts who had spent a year or more somewhere in Germany as Humboldt fellows had led to the first Sino-German Workshop in Berlin held at the Humboldt-Universitat zu Berlin in 2005. The particular purpose of the second German-Chinese Workshop on Computational and Applied Mathematics was to attract more junior Chinese scientists to the actual research activities in Germany. A summer school in Beijing on adaptive finite element methods with Carsten Carstensen and Roll Rannacher piror to the Hangzhou workshop underlined this activity to foster the collaboration of the new generations in the fields of computational and applied mathematics. This special issue reflects the present topics therein in both countries and can be summarised under five headings (i)-(v).
