Abstract

In this current data-revolution era, we should be aware that the role of mathematics, statistics, and data science significant in almost all fields of science and business. Thespeed of the development of those sciences is fast, and it is essential to have an event for exchanging information and sharing knowledge among people around the world.The International Conference on Mathematics, Statistics, and Data Science 2020 (ICMSDS 2020) was held to accommodate that demand.The ICMSDS 2020 took the theme of “Optimal Data Utilization to Reach Brighter Future” and was organized on November 11 – 12, 2020, through the collaboration between theDepartment of Statistics and the Department of Mathematics, IPB University. We humbly thank some associations which supported a lot this event, i.e Ikatan Statistisi Indonesia(ISI), Forum Penyelenggaraan Pendidikan Statistika Indonesia (FORSTAT), Indonesian Mathematical Society (IndoMS), and Indonesia Operations Research Association (IORA).On behalf of the committee would like to share our appreciation to the invited speakers that shared their knowledge and expertise in this very significant conference:1.
