Macaulay2 Development Workshop, 2016

该奖项支持2016年5月7日至10日在犹他大学举行的Macaulay2开发研讨会的参与者。Macaulay2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，开发新的软件包和函数，利用Macaulay2的S现有功能来执行代数和几何研究所必需的计算。然后，这些数据可供世界各地的其他数学家使用。目前的许多Macaulay2包都是在像这样的研讨会上开始的，或者得到了极大的增强。更多信息可在会议websitehttp://wiki.macaulay2.com/Macaulay2/index.php?title=Utah2016_-_Main_PageThis研讨会上获得，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，开发Macaulay2的软件包。这将通过让由经验丰富的和新手成员组成的参与者小组集中精力开发包来实现。这些软件包中的许多最终将被整合到Macaulay2中，其中一些还将在《代数与几何软件杂志》上进行同行审查。然后，世界各地的研究人员都可以使用这些包。

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.
