Software Tools for Mathematics


22 - 26 January 2018
Morelia, Michoacán, Mexico

General information


The workshop has two self-contained parts, both aimed at students and researchers who want to improve the computing skills they need for their studies and research.

  • The first part will be a two-day Software Carpentry training in Spanish about general productivity tools: GNU Bash, Git and Python.
  • This will be followed by three days dedicated to mathematical software and databases (mostly in English).

  • The focus of this workshop will be on the diversity of the mathematics software ecosystem, and on collaboration between the various systems and communities.

The workshop already received more attention than organisers expected. This is why we are now asking everybody to bring their computers with them.
The deadline for registration is December 5th, 2017. After the deadline has passed, you can still fill in the registration form to let us know your interest in future workshops.
We do not have enough funds to help as many people as we would like. We ask you to submit a form if you would like to receive financial support for accommodation.
