CMPD activities at the University of Maryland are hosted by the Center for Scientific Computation and Mathematical Modeling (CSCAMM). Research projects within the Institute for Research in Electronics and Applied Physics (formerly known as the Institute for Plasma Research) are central to the CMPD mission. Students come from the Physics and Astronomy Departments and the AMSC program.

In the Spring of 2004, we held a preliminary meeting at CSCAMM. The focus of the meeting was on kinetic plasma physics models for astrophysical applications, and was co-sponsored by the Princeton Institute for Computational Science and Engineering. A follow-up meeting is scheduled for Oct. 24-28 in Princeton.
