In 1950, a small research project concerned with the application of the theory of time series to seismic data analysis was formed within the Mathematics Department of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. This early work was pursued by Dr. E. A. Robinson and by Professor G. P. Wadsworth. The results of these studies were considered promising, and by 1952 a number of oil and geophysical exploration companies had been approached in order to determine their interest in supporting an expanded research program in this area. Eventually a group of these companies agreed to participate in such an effort, and in February 1953 the MIT Geophysical Analysis Group (GAG) was organized within the Department of Geology and Geophysics. Full participation in the activities of the GAG was open at any time to all interested companies. All members provided annual financial support, and a number of them furnished the GAG with data for analysis.

The Association of Teachers of Mathematics in New England was first called together by the superintendent of schools in Boston, E. P. Seaver, in 1903. A committee consisting of professors from Harvard University, Wellesley College and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and five teachers in secondary schools announced a meeting to be held in the Boston Latin School on April 18, 1903. By a singular chance that date came again on a Saturday fifty years later, when the semicentennial of the Association was celebrated by a dinner, a history, and a festspiel.

Oil Spill Cleanup

ABSTRACT A research group at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology has completed the first phase of development of a computer-assisted model for analyzing complex decisions and policies regarding oil spill cleanup. The model is the product of an ongoing MIT Sea Grant project sponsored by a consortium of government and industry organizations. The model can be used, among other things, in “strategic” planning for the long-term oil spill response needs of a region, in assisting on-scene coordinators in responding to a specific spill (“tactical/operational” setting), in evaluating the environmental and economic damages of a spill versus the cost of cleanup, in simulation and training, and in the analysis of various policy and regulatory issues such as delays, use of dispersants, and liability and compensation. The model is described in detail, with a focus on its potential uses. Some illustrative applications in the New England region are presented and applications of the model for the solution of Petro-Canada's dispersant logistics problem are discussed briefly.
