Michael Abshoff's Wiki SAGE page

Hello, I study math at the University of Dortmund. Most of the time I spend with SAGE is dedicated around packages and their portability. I added valgrind support to Sage 2.8.3 and have been using various valgrind tools to investigate Sage's memory consumption.

Task Table

Currently Working on

• hunt mem-leaks in C/C++ code of Sage
• Solaris port of SAGE.
• DMG installation image for MacOSX

• optional spkgs: CoCoA 4.7.x, ApCoCoALib & CoCoALib, g++ 4.2

Short Term

• build unified Setup.py for gdmodule - less important now due to drop of the Cygwin drop (officially)
• multivariate polynomial arithmetic via CoCoALib
• computation of approximate vanishing ideals via ApCoCoALib (needs multivariate polynomial arithmetic via CoCoALib)
• check targets for various SAGE packages like gmp and linbox
• make all packages using BLAS/Lapack use the Accelerate Framework on MacOSX. Patch for Linbox exists and will hopefully show up in Linbox svn soon

Long Term

• F4/F5 in CoCoALib with interface to SAGE

Interesting Ideas

• port SAGE code to MinGW/MSVC - probably done when hell freezes over - but one can at least dream.
• fix pari issue on cygwin - details FIXME

Done Tasks

• See the Changelog, the google groups sage-devel and sage-support and #sage-devel on freenode.

Other Software Interests

• Windows gmp port
• Linbox with MSVC
• Porting mathematical open source code to Solaris, Windows and any odd Unix out there.
