<P><FONT face=Arial>The <SPAN class=bold>International Association for Boundary
Element Methods (IABEM)</SPAN> promotes and facilitates the international
exchange of technical information on the development of boundary integral
equation formulations and numerical solution techniques, commonly referred to as
boundary element methods (BEM). </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial>Accordingly the last four symposia which have been organized
by IABEM were held in Paris (1998), Brescia (2000), Austin (2002) and
Minneapolis (2004).</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial>The next conference of IABEM will be held at the Graz
University of Technology (TU Graz), Austria, in July 2006. The conference IABEM
2006 is organized by the Institute of Applied Mechanics, the Institute of
Mathematics D, the Institute of Structural Analysis and the Johann Radon
Institute for Computational and Applied Mathematics (RICAM). The conference
sessions will be held at TU Graz campus.</FONT></P>
