Event summary
The 8th Atelier PARI/GP took place in Clermont-Ferrand (France) from june 19th to 23rd with a special focus on Elliptic curves, Modular Forms and $L$-Functions.
There were 36 registered participants from 16 different institutions (no registration fees).
A typical day of the workshop had introductory talks and tutorials in the morning; afternoons allowed ample time for hacking sessions, discussions and training.
The Atelier featured 13 morning talks.
Results and impact
This was a dissemination event with a special focus on recently developped packages (Elliptic curves over number fields, Modular forms), before they were merged into a formal release. We got lots of feedback on the interface and documentation and a number of bugs and glitches were fixed as a result.
