For the country formerly called Siam see Thailand

SIAM is an acronym for Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics.

The society was founded by a small group of mathematicians from academia and industry who met in Philadelphia in 1951 to start an organization whose members would meet periodically to exchange ideas about the uses of mathematics in industry. This meeting led to the organization of the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics. The membership of SIAM has grown from a few hundred in the early 1950s to more than 10,000 as of 2005. SIAM remains largely a north American organization, but also has an East Asia section and a UK and Ireland section. There are also numerous special interest groups.

The society publishes as of 2005 13 research journals

Multiscale Modeling and Simulation
SIAM Journal on Applied Dynamical Systems
SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics
SIAM Journal on Computing
SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization
SIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics
SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis
