Résumé: The conference objective is to address the state-of-the-art knowledge in the field of heat transfer and fluid flow in microscale. Recent development of industrial applications like microelectronics, laser systems, micro-heat exchangers, micro-devices (sensors and actuators), and power MEMS have led to studies dealing with microscopic behaviour of thermal phenomena. The Conference intends to provide a forum for scientists from academia and people from industry to present and discuss recent advances in their research on thermal phenomena in micro scale.

Résumé: Statistical mechanics provides the formalism of Gibbsian ensembles for computing properties of equilibrium systems from a knowledge of the microscopic interactions between the constituent particles. Our understanding of nonequilibrium situations is less satisfactory. In the field of interacting stochastic particle systems nonequilibrium questions are studied in simplified models that are amenable to mathematically rigorous analysis. This workshop brings together researchers from interacting stochastic systems and related areas to survey recent successes and to map out promising future directions
