U.S.-Sweden Workshop: Worldwide Access of Emerging Mathematical Technology, Stockholm, Sweden, August 1995

该奖项将支持7名美国参与者前往美国- 1995年6月7日至9日在瑞典斯德哥尔摩举行的瑞典计算机代数讲习班。 共同组织者是克莱姆森大学的大卫P雅各布斯和布赖恩马洛伊以及斯德哥尔摩大学的托尔斯滕埃克达尔。 研讨会的目的是讨论如何利用万维网和其他网络与科学和教育界分享数学软件系统。 讲习班讨论了有关制定共同标准和守则、多媒体方法和建立接口的适当软件开发工具的问题。 许多专门的数学软件系统正在出现，以执行各种计算，如求解方程组，构造代数结构，检查几何对象的属性，以及可视化抽象数学系统。 这些系统不容易传输，因为数据交换的格式和约定各不相同。 万维网的出现为通过远程访问软件程序来共享不同的系统提供了机会。 该研讨会利用与瑞典计算机代数专家和其他欧洲人通过POSSO（多项式系统求解器）组的互动。

This award will support travel of 7 U.S. participants to a U.S.-Sweden workshop in computer algebra in Stockholm, Sweden, June 7-9, 1995. The co-organizers are David P. Jacobs and Brian Malloy of Clemson University and Torsten Ekedahl of Stockholm University. The purpose of the workshop is to discuss the use of world wide web and other networks for sharing mathematical software systems with the scientific and educational community. The workshop addresses issues concerning the development of common standards and codes, multimedia approaches, and appropriate software development tools for building interfaces. Many specialized mathematical software systems are emerging to perform such diverse computations as solving systems of equations, constructing algebraic structures, examining properties of geometric objects, and visualizing abstract mathematical systems. These systems are not easily transported because of different formats and varied conventions for the interchange of data. The emergence of world wide web now offers an opportunity for sharing different systems through remote access to software programs. The workshop takes advantage of interaction with Swedish computer algebra specialists and other Europeans through POSSO (Polynomial Systems Solver) group.
