Participants are encouraged to come for either or both segments of the
workshop. Those attending the Developers' Meeting are encouraged to have
something in mind which they would like to implement in Sage; we will also have
some projects available for students to work on.

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.

Sage Days 38

Sage (www.sagemath.org) 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.

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.
