Leslie Lamport
The Communication of Mathematics
Microsoft

From the pen of Leslie Lamport...
Leslie Lamport began writing concurrent algorithms in the early '70s. He was so bad at it that he spent the next 20 years trying to figure out how to tell if his algorithms were correct. Because no one else knew how either, he was able to publish a lot of bad ideas before finally figuring it out. In the meanwhile, he realized that graduate school in math failed to teach him, or anyone else, anything useful about how to prove something. This realization led to his annoying habit of telling mathematicians how they should write proofs. In an unsuccessful effort to cajole them, he wrote LaTeX, a widely misused document formatting system.

David Carlisle
MathML on the Web: Using XSLT to Enable Cross-Platform Support for XHTML and MathML in Current Browsers
The Numerical Algorithms Group (NAG) Ltd

Presentation Materials

David Carlisle has been involved with the markup of mathematical documents since starting to use TeX around 1987. As a member of the LaTeX3 project, he was one of the main authors/maintainers of LaTeX2e, the current version of the LaTeX typesetting system--building on the LaTeX 2.09 system designed and built by Leslie Lamport. For the last four years, Carlisle has been working at NAG on various aspects of XML, but in particular he has acted as coeditor on both the MathML2 and the OpenMath specifications. While not directly involved in the XSL working group, he was an early user of the test implementations of the language (having previously used XSLT's immediate parent, DSSSL). He has also been one of the main supporters of the public XSL mailing list, xsl-list, and acted as technical editor on several XSLT books.

Roger Sidje
MathML amidst Open Web Standards: Mozilla's Building Blocks for Today and Tomorrow
The University of Queensland

Presentation Materials (html)
Presentation Materials (ppt)

Dr. Roger B. Sidje is the original author of MathML in Mozilla with the feedback of open-source contributors. Dr. Sidje graduated with a Ph.D. in numerical analysis at INRIA Rennes and now works at the Advanced Computational Modelling Centre (ACMC) of the Mathematics Department at The University of Queensland. Dr. Sidje's interests include serial and parallel numerical linear algebra, Markov chains, differential equations, and high-performance scientific computation on supercomputing platforms. The numerical analysis community has a well-established track record of producing peer-reviewed software (e.g., Netlib) for the advancement of mathematics, science, and education. Dr. Sidje's matrix exponential package, Expokit, is an example in that tradition. The establishment of Mozilla as an open-source project has provided the opportunity to add standards-based MathML support to a freely available and redistributable browser of high standing. Since native integration of interactive MathML has permeated several facets of the Mozilla framework, Dr. Sidje has acquired a broad knowledge of Mozilla and an appreciation of its capabilities for supporting such embedded standards.
