This volume presents the proceedings of the thira German-Italian
Symposium on the Applications of Mathematics in Industry and
Technology sponsored mainly by the research foundations of Germany
and Italy, DFG and CNR. We had not published the proceedings of the
second symposium held in Germany, but are now convinced that a
publication would be appreciated by many scientists. The aim we had
in mind organizing this symposium and communicating its scientific
content was essentially the same as in the previous symposia - we
were led by the same scientific and cultural (maybe even political)
ideas. The scientific idea is simple: Mathematics becomes a more
and more important tool in technology, business and organisatio-
but mathematics does not play a corresponding role. The reason is
that neither the public opinion nor the mathematicians them- selves
are really aware of this fact. To show the richness and efficiency
of this "industrial raw material" mathematics - at least in some
domains - was one subject of the conference. In planning the
structure a decision had to be made: If one wishes to present a
huge variety of applications of mathematics in very different
fields, the participants may loose the track, cannot find any
connection with their own field of research in too many lectures;
the symposium des integrates like a puzzle into many pieces, which
are not easy to be put together again.
