International Meshing Roundtable
The International Meshing Roundtable (IMR) is an academic conference in mesh generation
colloquially referred to by its acronym, IMR. Its topics are algorithms and mathematics related to meshes. Presentations span theory and practice, with an emphasis on practice. Conference sessions include contributed papers (refereed publications with talks), research notes (abstracts and talks), and posters; invited plenary speakers, short courses, and panels.
It has a tutorial day with introductory material for students. It has occasionally included software product tutorials.
Papers are subject to double-blind peer review and published by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics, SIAM.
The authors of the best papers are invited to submit extended versions to a special journal issue,
traditionally to the Elsevier journal Computer-Aided Design,[1]
with the organizing committee's paper chairs as guest editors.

Hosting
Founded in 1992, for 29 years it was an independent conference organized and sponsored by Sandia National Laboratories. It was founded and led by Ted Blacker. Since 2022, the IMR is officially the "SIAM International Meshing Roundtable Workshop." It is structured as an annual SIAM workshop, [2] held in conjunction with the biannual conferences SIAM Conference on Parallel Processing for Scientific Computing (PP) and SIAM Conference on Computational Science and Engineering (CSE).
The first two IMR's had no proceedings. Subsequent proceedings have been published by a variety of publishers, including Sandia, [3] Springer, [4] [5] Procedia Engineering, [6] Zenodo, [7] Lecture Notes in Computer Science, [8] and SIAM. [9]
It has a steering committee and an annual organizing committee, with representatives from industry, academia, and research labs.
Qualis ranks the IMR as a B1 conference.[10]
Awards
The conference gives traditional academic conference awards [11] for best paper, talk, and poster, with subcategories for students. It has a "meshing maestro" award for an artistic poster that becomes the design of the next year's conference t-shirt. The IMR names one IMR Fellow each year. Ted Blacker, the conference founder, received the unique Lifetime Achievement Award in 2018, concurrent with his retirement from Sandia National Labs.
