The address for posting to the list remains unchanged: webmath@camel.math.ca The list's new web page is https://mail.cms.math.ca/mailman/listinfo/webmath and all past archives are available from there. The page also provides a way to subscribe, unsubscribe and change your subscription options. The list has been rather quiet of late, but many of the list's 334 subscribers are knowledgeable and actively involved in math on the web, so it is hoped that the list will continue to be a valuable source of information. -Alan Kelm (email postmaster for camel.math.ca) : Alan W.

Participants should register with the ISSAC'2005 conference and select the IAMC workshop. Although we encourage everyone to attend the complete ISSAC + IAMC sessions, a reduced fee (US$65) is available for those attending IAMC only. Information for travel and accomodation (at conference rates) are available from the ISSAC05 site It is advisable to make hotel reservations early. The student dorms are easy to afford and close to the meeting. The hotel is not obligated to extend the same discount for ISSAC to IAMC-only participants. SUPPORT FOR STUDENTS IAMC recognizes the importance of student participation and is planning to support qualified students attending IAMC'05 with a stipend of up to US $400. We have applied for funding to the US National Science Foundation and, if funded, will be able to support graduate students from US-based institutions.

We just received a phase 2 grant to develop technology to make mathematics accessible in MS Word and Adobe PDF, with work continuing for the Web. You can read the press release on our web site, or see the full text below. http://www.dessci.com/en/company/press/releases/ Bruce Virga VP, Sales - our address has changed - Design Science, Inc. 140 Pine Avenue, 4th Floor Long Beach, California 90802 USA Tel: (562) 432-2920 Fax: (562) 432-2857 http://www.dessci.com ~ Makers of MathType, MathFlow, MathPlayer, WebEQ, Equation Editor, TexAide ~ FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Design Science Receives Additional Funding to Make Mathematics Accessible Research to Target Microsoft Word and Adobe PDF LONG BEACH, Calif. - August 10, 2005 - Design Science, Inc. announced today it has received a National Science Foundation (NSF) grant (No. 0522308) to continue research in making mathematical content accessible to people with vision disabilities. The grant leverages efforts of the company's pioneering work in making mathematics in web pages accessible, by extending mathematics accessibility to Microsoft Word and Adobe PDF documents. The company also intends to add support for Braille and improve its speech generation algorithms. "The prevalence of Word and PDF documents in science and education makes bringing math accessibility to these formats the next logical step. Our aim is to develop a robust, market-ready system." said Dr. Neil Soiffer, Senior Scientist at Design Science and the grant's Principal Investigator. The urgent need for readily accessible mathematics was highlighted in the recent U.S. Department of Education announcement, "Raising Achievement: A New Path for No Child Left Behind", that now focuses institutions on providing a more sensible and informed approach to the testing of students with persistent academic disabilities. Furthermore, while assistive technologies exist today that make textual content accessible to those with visual disabilities, extending this same technology for mathematics for a variety of mainstream documents will directly address the needs of federal and international agencies to comply with content accessibility charters. This grant reinforces Design Science's position as the leading vendor of MathML-based solutions. Prior NSF-funded research into mathematics accessibility has already been incorporated into Design Science's MathPlayer, a tool enabling Microsoft Internet Explorer users to display and speak mathematical notations in web pages. MathPlayer's accessibility features, based on MathML technology, enable individuals with visual disabilities to hear mathematical expressions read aloud. Users can navigate through an expression using arrow keys to listen to parts of an equation several times in order to build up a complete mental picture. Future versions will simultaneously highlight the terms being read aloud to help individuals with low vision and learning disabilities such as dyslexia. MathPlayer is currently the only mathematics accessibility solution that seamlessly integrates with leading screen reader software, such as JAWS, Window-Eyes, HAL, Read & Write, and BrowseAloud. About MathML MathML is an XML-based language for representing mathematics that was published as a Recommendation by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) in 1998. Since MathML captures the meaning and structure of mathematics, it enables a wide range of applications. In addition to making it possible to have math spoken to visually disabled readers, it also enables searching for mathematical expressions within content and interoperability with the growing number of computational applications that understand MathML. About Design Science, Inc. Founded in 1986 and headquartered in Long Beach, California, Design Science develops software used by educators, scientists and publishing professionals, including MathType, Equation Editor in Microsoft Office, WebEQ, MathFlow, MathPlayer and TeXaide, to communicate on the web and in print.

The idea behind Zenome is to build collaborative, highly functional, Web Communities, representing the combined knowledge and experience of its members. To start, Zenome will be gathering annotated links to relevant Web pages as well as spawning discussion groups for topics of interest. Many more knowledge sharing/leveraging features will follow. I want to invite you all to get involved in building a Math Community that everyone can benefit from. I've seeded the Mathematics Community with some initial data. Have a look at: http://www.zenome.com/searcher/subCategories.php?parentID=013.111&desc=Sciences/Mathematics A couple of ways that Zenome is different than existing directories/communities: * The intent is to pay both Community editors and page indexers a percentage of the advertising revenue generated by the site. The commissions would be relatively small to start, but it is our way of trying to say "thank you" to the Community. * Zenome gathers much more meta-data about each page indexed than traditional directories - and over time we intend to use this meta-data to vastly enrich the user experience of Zenome over time. * Zenome is meant to grow "organically" - with the directory structure set, in the most part, by indexers and editors. Everyday contributors will have a much greater impact on all aspects of their respective Zenome communities. * Zenome's self-organizing tools should ensure that users receive the most relevant search results. The self-organizing algorithms should also ensure that Zenome's results improve as the directory grows. * The knowledge encapsulated in the pages listed in Zenome categories will be leveraged to create new knowledge - it won't just be static. I'd love to hear your feedback on the Mathematics Community at Zenome. Like I said above, I've just started working on this site and I'm hoping together we can build it into something great! Darren (dredfern) Editor, Mathematics Zenome.com From robertm at dessci.com Fri Nov 11 13:28:14 2005 From: robertm at dessci.com (Robert Miner) Date: Fri Nov 11 13:27:07 2005 Subject: [Webmath] MathML-related job openings Message-ID: Hi All. If any of you know of bright, capable former students or colleagues with an interest in Math on the Web, and who are looking for jobs, Design Science has a number of openings, including some that aren't just programming work. I mention that since in my past life as a math teacher, I always found it difficult to advise math students who didn't want to be programmers as to how they might be able to use their math backgrounds to find work in industry. In any event, we maintain a careers page at http://www.dessci.com/en/company/employ.htm and would appreciate it if you steer any people you know who might be interested toward it.
