The theme of the conference entitled ‘Generalized Functions Convergence, Structures and their Applications’ is based on the vital mathematical theory of Functional Analysis envolved in present century, hailed by Browder (1972) as the century of functional analysis. The opinion of some mathematicians about functional analysis as a purely mathematical abstraction is true to some extent. In response to this question, Dieudonne (1972) has referred to the applications of the theory of distributions created by the French mathematician Laurent Schwartz since his theory is based on functional analysis, but further work is necessary, keeping in mind the historical perspective pointed out by Dieudonne.
