International Association for Statistical Computing
The International Association for Statistical Computing (IASC)[1] was founded during the 41st Session of the International Statistical Institute (ISI) in 1977, as a Section of the ISI.[2]
The objectives of the Association are to foster world-wide interest in effective statistical computing and to exchange technical knowledge through international contacts and meetings between statisticians, computing professionals, organizations, institutions, governments and the general public.
The Association is affiliated with the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP). It publishes the journal called Computational Statistics & Data Analysis (CSDA)[3] and Statistical Software Newsletter (CSDA SSN).[4]
