5 ECM
The fifth European Mathematical Congress in Amsterdam, July 14-18, 2008, was organized by Vrije Univeristeit, Centrum voor Wiskunde en Informatica and Universiteit van Amsterdam. There were 786 participants. Chairman of the Organizing Committee was André Ran. The Scientific Committee was chaired by Alexander Schrijver (Amsterdam).
