THE COLLAPSE
First part : Finance as laboratory : mathematical models in the age of 
automation
http://www.arts-et-metiers.net/musee.php?P=1001&id=474&cycle=105&lang=fra&flash=f

Today, science, technology and finance have become completely 
interlinked entities. The first part of this conference series seeks to 
investigate the nature of those links and explore the architecture of 
financial engineering today. How are the tools of analysis, decision 
support, automation, and also, by extension, networks and security 
improving? how has finance become the prime laboratory for research and 
development in cybernetics?

with :

- Christophe Quester, regular contributor to Agefi, newspaper about 
information technologies in the world of finance, investigates the 
increasing complexity of information systems.

- Jean-Philippe Bouchaud, physicist and professor at the Polytechnic 
School, is interested in mathematical models and algorithms in use 
today. He studies the physics of disordered systems, the statistics of 
market movements and financial risk modelization.

- RYBN will introduce his project ADM8, an open source automated trading 
program.
