FWAM (“Flatiron-wide Autumn Meeting”, previously “Flatiron-wide Algorithms and Mathematics”) is a two-day internal conference with the goal of introducing and reviewing scientific and computational tools of broad and significant usefulness to Flatiron researchers across all centers of the institute. This year’s theme is “Software Development Best Practices”, divided into four broad topics:

  • GPU programming and automatic differentiation
  • Programming languages and interoperability
  • Open-source software management
  • Visualization and interactive graphics
