Mathematical Sciences Research Equipment

本项目是数学科学项目科学计算研究设备资助项目下的设备资助项目。该项目涉及购买专门用于支持数学科学研究的专用设备。一般来说，这种设备是几个研究项目共同需要的，很难单独用于一个项目。这项由国家科学基金会提供的研究设备支持与制造商提供的设备折扣和贡献以及提交机构的大量费用分摊相结合。这个项目是大学、工业和政府合作支持数学科学基础研究的一个很好的例子。该设备将用于几个研究项目，特别是：(1)计算数论和筛理论中出现的差分微分方程，(2)分析中的计算机图形学，(3)符号计算程序和算法。

This project is an equipment grant under the activity Grants For Scientific Computing Research Equipment For The Mathematical Sciences program. The project involves the purchase of special purpose equipment dedicated to the support of research in the mathematical sciences. In general, this equipment is required jointly by several research projects and would be difficult to justify on one project alone. This research equipment support from the National Science Foundation is coupled with discounts and contributions of equipment from manufacturers and significant cost-sharing from the submitting institution. This project provides a good example of university, industrial, and government cooperation in the support of basic research in the mathematical sciences. This equipment will be used in several research projects, in particular: (1) Computational number theory and the difference-differential equations that arise in sieve theory, (2) Computer graphics in analysis, (3) Symbolic computation programs and algorithms.
