Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) is an US-based professional non-profit organization of applied mathematicians who are working in the field of education and research of applied mathematics. They do so with publishing textbooks and academic journals, holding academic conferences, and giving awards to experts of applied mathematics.

AMS (American Mathematical Society) is also an organization for American mathematicians, but SIAM and AMS has the following differences:

• The interest of AMS is the field of pure and applied mathematics, but SIAM focuses on applied mathematics, especially statistics, optimization, and numerical analysis.
• AMS takes action in the United States, but SIAM has several branches inside and outside the United States. For example, SIAM has MEXSIAM (Mexico Section of SIAM), ARSIAM (Argentina Section of SIAM), COSIAM (Columbia Section of SIAM), SIAM UKIE (United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland Section of SIAM), and EASIAM (East Asia Section of SIAM).

These are the journals currently published from SIAM.

• SIAM Review^[2]
• SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics^[3]
• SIAM Journal on Mathematical Analysis^[4]
• SIAM Journal on Financial Mathematics^[5]
• Theory of Probability and Its Applications^[6]
• SIAM Journal on Applied Dynamical Systems^[7]
• SIAM Journal on Matrix Analysis and Applications^[8] (Journal about matrix analysis)

• Multiscale Modeling and Simulation
• SIAM Journal on Computing
• SIAM Journal on Scientific Computing^[9]
• SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis^[10]

• SIAM Journal on Optimization
• SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization

SIAM has published many textbooks for various fields in applied mathematics. For example, they have literature for approximation theory,^[11] numerical analysis,^[12] numerical linear algebra,^[13][14] and optimization.^[15] SIAM is also publishing the following series.^[16]

• ASA-SIAM Series on Statistics and Applied Probability
• CBMS-NSF Regional Conf. Series In Applied Math
• Classics in Applied Mathematics
• Financial Mathematics
• MOS-SIAM Series on Optimization
• SIAM Spotlights
• Software, Environments, and Tools
• Studies in Applied and Numerical Mathematics

• American Mathematical Society
• Timeline of women in mathematics in the United States
• Japan Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (Japanese counterpart of SIAM)
