Line 45: Line 88:
We will use this list instead of a formal registration procedure to determine if additional rooms will need to be rented for the workshop. Please add your name to the list below if you will attend. You can also add your name with a following '?' to indicate that you plan to come, but it's not certain yet. Registration is free, but please register on: http://www.conferences.jku.at/riscsummer2009/e2570/index_eng.html.
Line 47: Line 90:
If you don't have an account on this wiki, feel free to e-mail one of the organizers so they can add you to the list. Very convenient and reasonably priced rooms are available for reservation from the same site, but may run out. Register early!

== Prerequisites ==

All attendees are expected to have Sage >= 4.1 and the Sage-Combinat patches installed on their laptops. If you do not plan to bring a laptop, please contact the organizers, and we will have a terminal setup for you. Please come see us for help during FPSAC if you encounter any problem!

Sage 4.1 will be available shortly from: http://www.sagemath.org/download.html

See http://wiki.sagemath.org/combinat/MercurialStepByStep for the installation instructions of Sage-Combinat. On UNIX/Mac, it boils down to running the following command in a terminal:
{{{
sage -combinat install
}}}

== T-Shirts ==

If you would like to get the T-Shirt for this workshop (~$10), please write the size below before July 11th. Here is the current design (suggestions welcome):

And if you wonder about the meaning: ``Sage is the powerful propeller allowing us to soar high to our [[http://you-tube.com/watch?v=860pEuwHgCw|Castle in the Sky]]. Our hope is that in return our
scouting will help drive the car to new horizons``.

== Preliminary list of short tutorials ==

Besides the main general-purpose Sage-Combinat tutorial, we will run
short tutorials focused on specific features, with a (flexible) format
like 10 minutes of presentation; 20 minutes of exercises. Here are
some ideas. Please feel free to suggest others, especially around some
features you developed yourself!

 * Posets (Franco?)
 * Words (Franco?)
 * Species and decomposable classes in Axiom / Aldor / Maple / MuPAD (Mike? Ralf? Martin?)
 * guess in Axiom / Aldor (Martin?)
 * Coxeter groups, crystals (Anne, Nicolas)
 * Symmetric Functions, Non Commutative Symmetric Functions, using algebras with several basis (Jason? Nicolas?)
 * categories/parents/elements (Nicolas)
 * Implementing enriched enumerated sets, (e.g. how to enrich the partitions of 5 with a semi-groups structure) (Florent?)
 * Implementing new combinatorial objects (?)
 * Implementing new (Hopf) Algebras with bases (Florent? Nicolas?)
 * Sharing code with the Sage-combinat patch server
 * using the GenericBacktracker class to generate lattice paths and other objects (Dan Drake)?

*-Combinat 2009

International Sage Workshop on Free and Practical Software for Algebraic Combinatorics

Dates: July 25-29

Location: RISC, Linz, Austria

This event will follow FPSAC'09, and be part of RISC's summer 2009.

Goals

  • get new users and developers on board, especially from the FPSAC community
  • help former MuPAD-Combinat users to switch to Sage
  • developers meeting

Tentative program

  • Saturday:
    • Sage and Sage-Combinat introductory talks
    • Hands on tutorials
  • Sunday:
    • Informal Sage-Combinat lab: come work on your own problem with experts at your full disposition
    • Relaxed afternoon (to recover from a long FPSAC week)
  • Monday-Wednesday:
    • Informal Sage-Combinat lab
    • Technical talks
    • Short focused tutorials (see below)
    • Coding sprints
    • Design discussions
