Mathematics and the Microcomputer Workshops: (I) Chaos; (II) Decision Making

两个应用数学研讨会正在为大学提供 教师。 为期五天的讲习班于1989年夏季举行 在索尔兹伯里州立大学，并由MD-DC-VA部分赞助 美国数学协会的主席 的主要人群 将是该科成员和来自毗邻国家的成员。 的 数学和微型计算机的共生现象正在出现， 强调，讲习班的目标是提供有效的 教室的应用。 混沌理论的第一个研讨会是 由马里兰州大学实验室的Celso Grebogi给出， 等离子体物理学 混沌是一个概念性和技术性的领域 每个人的应用数学工具包里都应该有这些贡献。 它使 自然和强大的使用计算机。 第二次决策研讨会 制造，是由T。L.匹兹堡大学的Saaty。 他的层次分析法适用于复杂系统， 特别是在行为科学和社会科学领域。 而且安 专家系统是可用的，已被设计用于实施AHP， 在微型计算机上运行。 该机构正在为该计划提供额外的支持， 参加者所属院校亦会提供支援。

Two applied mathematics workshops are being offered for college faculty. The five-day workshops are being held in the Summer of 1989 at Salisbury State University and are sponsored by the MD-DC-VA Section of the Mathematical Association of America. The primary population will be members of the section and members from contiguous states. The emerging symbiosis of mathematics and microcomputers is being emphasized, with the goal of the workshop to provide effective applications for the classroom. The first workshop on Chaos theory is being given by Celso Grebogi of the University of Maryland Lab for Plasma Physics. Chaos is a field with conceptual and technical contributions that should be in everyone's applied math kit. It makes natural and powerful use of computers. The second workshop on Decision Making, is being given by T. L. Saaty of the University of Pittsburgh. His Analytic Hierarchy Process is applicable to complex systems, especially in the behavioral and social science fields. Moreover, an expert system is available that has been designed to implement AHP and to run on a microcomputer. The institution is contributing additional support for the program and the participant's institutions will also provide support.
