Macaulay2 Development Workshop, 2016

该奖项支持2016年5月7日至10日在犹他州大学举行的Macaulay 2开发研讨会的参与者。 Macaulay 2是世界领先的开源软件系统之一，致力于支持交换代数和代数几何的研究。本次研讨会的目的是将这些领域的研究人员聚集在一起，开发新的软件包和功能，利用Macaulay 2的现有功能来执行代数和几何研究所必需的计算。这些都是然后提供给世界各地的其他数学家使用。 许多当前的Macaulay 2软件包都是在这样的研讨会上开始的，或者通过这样的研讨会得到了极大的增强。更多的信息可以在会议网站上找到http：wiki.macaulay2.com/Macaulay2/index.php? title= Utah 2016_-_Main_Page该研讨会旨在帮助指导研究人员，包括研究型大学和四年制学院的研究生和教职员工，为Macaulay开发软件包2。 这将通过让由经验丰富的和新的成员组成的参与者小组密集地开发包来完成。 其中许多软件包最终将被集成到Macaulay 2中，其中一些软件包还将在代数和几何软件杂志上进行同行评审。 这些软件包可供世界各地的研究人员使用。

This award supports participants at the Macaulay2 Development Workshop, May 7th-10th, 2016, at the University of Utah. Macaulay2 is one of the world's leading open source software systems devoted to supporting research in commutative algebra and algebraic geometry. The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers in these fields to develop new packages and functions that utilize Macaulay2's existing functionality to perform computations essential for research in algebra and geometry. These are then made available for use by other mathematicians throughout the world. Many of the current Macaulay2 packages were started at, or greatly enhanced by, work at workshops such as this one. More information is available at the conference websitehttp://wiki.macaulay2.com/Macaulay2/index.php?title=Utah2016_-_Main_PageThis workshop is designed to help guide researchers, including graduate students and faculty members at both research universities and 4-year colleges, in the development of packages for Macaulay2. This will be done by having groups of participants consisting of a mix of experienced and novice members work intensively on developing packages. Many of these packages will eventually be integrated into Macaulay2, with some of those also going through a peer-review process at the Journal of Software for Algebra and Geometry. These packages can then be used by researchers throughout the world.
