SIAM is an acronym for Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics. Acronyms and initialisms are abbreviations formed from the initial letter or letters of words, such as NATO and XHTML, and are pronounced in a way that is distinct from the full pronunciation of what the letters stand for. ...
The society was founded by a small group of mathematicians from academia and industry who met in Philadelphia in 1951 to start an organization whose members would meet periodically to exchange ideas about the uses of mathematics in industry. This meeting led to the organization of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics. The membership of SIAM has grown from a few hundred in the early 1950s to more than 10,000 as of 2005. SIAM still retains a heavy North American influence, but it also has an East Asia section and a UK and Ireland section. 1951 was a common year starting on Monday; see its calendar. ...

The focus for the society is applied and industrial mathematics, and the society often times promotes its acronym as "Science and Industry Advance with Mathematics." It is composed of a combination of people from a wide variety of vocations. Members include engineers, scientists, industrial mathematicians, and academic mathematicians. The society is active in promoting the use of analysis and modeling in all settings. The society also strives to support and provide guidance to educational institutions wishing to promote applied mathematics. Acronyms and initialisms are abbreviations formed from the initial letter or letters of words, such as NATO and XHTML, and are pronounced in a way that is distinct from the full pronunciation of what the letters stand for. ...

Applied mathematics is a branch of mathematics that concerns itself with the application of mathematical knowledge to other domains. ...
The society includes a number of special interest groups:
- Analysis of Partial Differential Equations
- Computational Science and Engineering
- Control and Systems Theory
- Discrete Mathematics
- Dynamical Systems
- Financial Mathematics and Engineering
- Geometric Design
- Geosciences
- Imaging Science
- Life Sciences
- Linear Algebra
- Nonlinear Waves and Coherent Structures
- Optimization
- Orthogonal Polynomials and Special Functions
- Supercomputing
As of 2005 SIAM publishes 13 research journals: Linear algebra is the branch of mathematics concerned with the study of vectors, vector spaces (or linear spaces), linear transformations, and systems of linear equations. ...
In mathematics, optimization is the discipline which is concerned with finding the maxima and minima of functions, possibly subject to constraints. ...
