Gesellschaft für Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik ("Society of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics"), often referred to by the acronym GAMM, is a German society for the promotion of science, founded in 1922 by the physicist Ludwig Prandtl and the mathematician Richard von Mises.
In 1958 the GAMM and the ACM together worked out the "ALGOL 58 Report" at a meeting in Zurich.
