It provides developers who may be experienced with other application toolkits the grounding they'll need to start developing Cocoa applications. A complement to Apple's documentation, it is the only reference to the classes, functions, types, constants, protocols, and methods that make up Cocoa's Foundation and Application Kit frameworks, based on the Jaguar release (Mac OS X 10.2).

  • Using Macaulay2 Effectively in Practice
    Using Macaulay2 effectively in practice Mike Stillman ([email protected]) Department of Mathematics Cornell 22 July 2019 / IMA Sage/M2 Macaulay2: at a glance Project started in 1993, Dan Grayson and Mike Stillman. Open source. Key computations: Gr¨obnerbases, free resolutions, Hilbert functions and applications of these. Rings, Modules and Chain Complexes are first class objects. Language which is comfortable for mathematicians, yet powerful, expressive, and fun to program in. Now a community project Journal of Software for Algebra and Geometry (started in 2009. Now we handle: Macaulay2, Singular, Gap, Cocoa) (original editors: Greg Smith, Amelia Taylor). Strong community: including about 2 workshops per year. User contributed packages (about 200 so far). Each has doc and tests, is tested every night, and is distributed with M2. Lots of activity Over 2000 math papers refer to Macaulay2. History: 1976-1978 (My undergrad years at Urbana) E. Graham Evans: asked me to write a program to compute syzygies, from Hilbert's algorithm from 1890. Really didn't work on computers of the day (probably might still be an issue!). Instead: Did computation degree by degree, no finishing condition. Used Buchsbaum-Eisenbud \What makes a complex exact" (by hand!) to see if the resulting complex was exact. Winfried Bruns was there too. Very exciting time. History: 1978-1983 (My grad years, with Dave Bayer, at Harvard) History: 1978-1983 (My grad years, with Dave Bayer, at Harvard) I tried to do \real mathematics" but Dave Bayer (basically) rediscovered Groebner bases, and saw that they gave an algorithm for computing all syzygies. I got excited, dropped what I was doing, and we programmed (in Pascal), in less than one week, the first version of what would be Macaulay.

  • Chapter 1. Origins of Mac OS X
    1 Chapter 1. Origins of Mac OS X "Most ideas come from previous ideas." Alan Curtis Kay The Mac OS X operating system represents a rather successful coming together of paradigms, ideologies, and technologies that have often resisted each other in the past. A good example is the cordial relationship that exists between the command-line and graphical interfaces in Mac OS X. The system is a result of the trials and tribulations of Apple and NeXT, as well as their user and developer communities. Mac OS X exemplifies how a capable system can result from the direct or indirect efforts of corporations, academic and research communities, the Open Source and Free Software movements, and, of course, individuals. Apple has been around since 1976, and many accounts of its history have been told. If the story of Apple as a company is fascinating, so is the technical history of Apple's operating systems. In this chapter,[1] we will trace the history of Mac OS X, discussing several technologies whose confluence eventually led to the modern-day Apple operating system. [1] This book's accompanying web site (www.osxbook.com) provides a more detailed technical history of all of Apple's operating systems. 1 2 2 1 1.1. Apple's Quest for the[2] Operating System [2] Whereas the word "the" is used here to designate prominence and desirability, it is an interesting coincidence that "THE" was the name of a multiprogramming system described by Edsger W. Dijkstra in a 1968 paper. It was March 1988. The Macintosh had been around for four years.

  • An Alternative Algorithm for Computing the Betti Table of a Monomial Ideal 3
    AN ALTERNATIVE ALGORITHM FOR COMPUTING THE BETTI TABLE OF A MONOMIAL IDEAL MARIA-LAURA TORRENTE AND MATTEO VARBARO Abstract. In this paper we develop a new technique to compute the Betti table of a monomial ideal. We present a prototype implementation of the resulting algorithm and we perform numerical experiments suggesting a very promising efficiency. On the way of describing the method, we also prove new constraints on the shape of the possible Betti tables of a monomial ideal. 1. Introduction Since many years syzygies, and more generally free resolutions, are central in purely theo- retical aspects of algebraic geometry; more recently, after the connection between algebra and statistics have been initiated by Diaconis and Sturmfels in [DS98], free resolutions have also become an important tool in statistics (for instance, see [D11, SW09]). As a consequence, it is fundamental to have efficient algorithms to compute them. The usual approach uses Gr¨obner bases and exploits a result of Schreyer (for more details see [Sc80, Sc91] or [Ei95, Chapter 15, Section 5]). The packages for free resolutions of the most used computer algebra systems, like [Macaulay2, Singular, CoCoA], are based on these techniques. In this paper, we introduce a new algorithmic method to compute the minimal graded free resolution of any finitely generated graded module over a polynomial ring such that some (possibly non- minimal) graded free resolution is known a priori. We describe this method and we present the resulting algorithm in the case of monomial ideals in a polynomial ring, in which situ- ation we always have a starting nonminimal graded free resolution.

  • Computations in Algebraic Geometry with Macaulay 2
    Computations in algebraic geometry with Macaulay 2 Editors: D. Eisenbud, D. Grayson, M. Stillman, and B. Sturmfels Preface Systems of polynomial equations arise throughout mathematics, science, and engineering. Algebraic geometry provides powerful theoretical techniques for studying the qualitative and quantitative features of their solution sets. Re- cently developed algorithms have made theoretical aspects of the subject accessible to a broad range of mathematicians and scientists. The algorith- mic approach to the subject has two principal aims: developing new tools for research within mathematics, and providing new tools for modeling and solv- ing problems that arise in the sciences and engineering. A healthy synergy emerges, as new theorems yield new algorithms and emerging applications lead to new theoretical questions. This book presents algorithmic tools for algebraic geometry and experi- mental applications of them. It also introduces a software system in which the tools have been implemented and with which the experiments can be carried out. Macaulay 2 is a computer algebra system devoted to supporting research in algebraic geometry, commutative algebra, and their applications. The reader of this book will encounter Macaulay 2 in the context of concrete applications and practical computations in algebraic geometry. The expositions of the algorithmic tools presented here are designed to serve as a useful guide for those wishing to bring such tools to bear on their own problems. A wide range of mathematical scientists should find these expositions valuable. This includes both the users of other programs similar to Macaulay 2 (for example, Singular and CoCoA) and those who are not interested in explicit machine computations at all.
