It has been a great honour for me to deliver the “Alan Tayler Lecture” in this ECMI Conference, to honour one of the leading founders and Presidents of ECMI. I have collaborated with Alan for many years, especially during my term as Chairman of the Educational Committee, and later during the first ECMI-HCM Project. While he was already very ill, he found the way to participate (even though only for a couple of days) in a workshop in Milan, opening ECMI to the Italian academic and industrial community, and highly supported the birth of MIRIAM (the Milan Research Centre for Industrial and Applied Mathematics).
