{{{#!rst Sage Days 38 ============ .. Note:: What's New: * The `complete schedule`_ which contains links to slides and more. * The wiki page to organize `projects and coding sprints`_ is ready. Add an entry for your project there or attach your name to a project that you'd like to work on. * The `tutorials and resources`_ page is now live! It contains the worksheets we will use during the tutorials, guides and other resources. * A wiki page containing `installation instructions`_. * Here is the link to the `YouTube playlist of Sage videos`_ that was playing on Monday during the installation session. .. _`complete schedule`: days38_schedule .. _`projects and coding sprints`: days38_projects .. _`tutorials and resources`: days38_tutorials .. _`installation instructions`: days38_installations .. _`YouTube playlist of Sage videos`: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL27CE3E3EEA9F1ED0 `Sage`__ is a mathematics software package, developed by and for the mathematics community. It aims to become a viable alternative to commercial software packages on the basis of an open-source model. __ www.sagemath.org Theme ----- This workshop will be a 5-day intensive workshop to serve both as introduction to Sage and as an open developers meeting. The event will include a combination of mathematical talks, tutorials, demonstrations of Sage functionality as well as time spent on Sage development. The principal focus of the developers meeting is algebraic combinatorics and the representation theory of algebras. Location and Date ----------------- * `Centre de recherche mathématique`__, Montréal, Quebec, May 7-11, 2012. * `Official CRM website for this event`__ __ http://www.crm.umontreal.ca/ __ http://www.crm.umontreal.ca/2012/Sage12/index_e.php Invited speakers ---------------- * Meinolf Geck, University of Aberdeen * Florent Hivert, LRI, Université Paris-Sud * Anne Schilling, University of California Davis * Øyvind Solberg, Norwegian University of Science and Technology * Nicolas Thiéry, LMO, Université Paris-Sud * Derek Ruths, McGill University Who should attend ----------------- You! A specific goal of the workshop is to provide a venue for faculty, graduate students and undergraduate students to learn more about the software. This will make it accessible to researchers at all levels, *even those without any prior experience with Sage*. Since it will be held in May, it is an excellent opportunity for undergraduate students embarking on summer research projects and graduate students looking to incorporate scientific computation into their research projects. Registration ------------ *Online registration* will be handled by the official CRM website for this event: * `Online registration`__ __ http://www.crm.umontreal.ca/2012/Sage12/index_e.php *Questionnaire.* In addition to the online registration, we also ask that you complete the following questionnaire: * `Questionnaire / Intention to participate`__ __ https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dGVWdVpHbWdlaUgwWkhjNHpPbGp3TkE6MA .. *Financial support.* A limited amount of financial support is available for students and postdocs.
