Dear Dr. Nagarjuna, can you please post this news in appropriate fora? Thanks and regards. Kannan
--------------- IIT Bombay is organising a Scilab Workshop, jointly with the Scilab Development Team at INRIA, France. This Workshop will be conducted at IIT Bombay, during 7-8 March 2007. The details of this Workshop are available at http://ekalavya.it.iitb.ac.in/scilab_course.do. An announcement of this Workshop also appears prominently at the Home Page of Scilab, namely, www.scilab.org.
You may know that Scilab is a FREE software, having capabilities similar to the industry standard Matlab. We have adopted Scilab for several courses at IIT Bombay. We have found Scilab to be an attractive alternative to Matlab.
This Workshop will consist of introductory and advanced level talks on the use of Scilab. In addition, we plan to discuss strategies to take its use forward in India. We would also discuss whether it is possible to participate in the development of Scilab and how well to provide support to end users.
We can provide accommodation in our Guest House for those who register early. In case you have any question, please write to me at scilab.workshop@iitb.ac.in.
Thanks and best wishes.
Kannan Moudgalya
