 Okay, so as you can see on the title, there is the future So the first thing we can say is that we hope that it will be a future for Sylab What I will explain very briefly is what are our plans and projects about Sylab and about the structure around Sylab The key points of the future of Sylab are the following The latest release of Sylab is Sylab 4.1 that got released last December As explained yesterday, this Sylab is the Sylab which comes from old software made by INRIA since 1980 and we think that this is the end of This Sylab The end means that we want to build now a brand new Sylab Compatible and based on the old one, but with new features. I am going to explain how So what we want to do before the end of 2007 is two things first to have a new and reinforced organization of Sylab consortium and Two to have a new Sylab version what we call Sylab 5. I told you that Sylab consortium in reality doesn't exist. It's only but INRIA Because the members of Sylab consortium have contracts with INRIA. So Sylab consortium now is INRIA So we plan to have in the future, in the very near future an organization, a real organization like a foundation and You can have in mind something like the Mozilla Foundation for instance, the Mozilla Foundation making software like Firefox, Undumbered and others. It is the kind of model we want to have and We are thinking about it, but what we want to do is to have in this new structure various kind of members and to prepare everything to have an infrastructure for service around Sylab because in fact the problem we have is Many times and in particular industrial people ask for that. They ask for support. They ask for services. They ask for many things and we are not able to give this So what we plan to have is not particularly That we can do that but that we can have around us and we can organize around us The way to do that with small companies or big companies that for instance we can Certify we can say we work with these companies that can do service. I can do support. I can do formation, but also people asking for Helping us to migrate from MATLAB to Sylab or these kind of things and we plan to have around us a structure to do that What we can do also is more support for developing toolboxes at the present time The only thing we have is on Sylab website Explanation of how to make toolboxes, but it's not enough. We can do more and What we plan to do is to have a sort of toolbox certification until now Everybody can upload the toolbox the contribution he made on Sylab website, but they are all put in the same basket and What we will be very interesting for us is to review to have a system or review of the toolboxes of a Contribution and to be able to say this contribution is good This one you can rely on it to have something like that This is very time-consuming this demand more people and we hope to do this in the future And we could do the same kind of things For companies companies that can be certified not only in France, but everywhere in the world Companies saying are we are certified by Sylab consortium? We can also why not develop some kind of toolboxes and what we want to do is Having partners in the world is not possible for Sylab consortium Based in Paris to be able to address India China USA and so on so you need to have partners all around the world to help us and Not us to help Sylab This comes with a new Sylab. I call it Sylab 5. I will give you a Few information about Sylab 5 The The purpose we are following is to have Sylab for everybody at all levels Everybody means that everybody who has to make all purpose numerical computation Could use Sylab from that it need to be very easy to use and at all level means that in secondary school in University in research in companies it also could be used for all purpose and this is very important because if you Learn Sylab to students in secondary school They will use it in the future and you can't tell them you use a software that will be used in the future When do you be engineers and we want this Sylab to be very easy to Interoperability with over kind of software Sylab is not going to do everything in numerical Competition, but it we want it to be capable to link easily with over software Until now what we did we run behind matlab in order to have a good Sylab software But what we want to do now is to be better than matlab in specific domain You also see But Sylab can be better than matlab in a few domain like Cycles like solving different series question and so on but now we want to have very Very comprehensive domain where we can say matlab cannot do it or matlab do it very bad And we want you are going to see that say I'll be doing this better for instance I was talking this morning about code generation Matlab is not able to generate from matlab code very simple code C code Also, we are working hard to have a Sylab working for high performance computing and for great computing And this is very important for great computing for instance because if you want to use matlab for great computing having 10 matlab or 100 matlab working on 100 processor you need to pay for them With Sylab is not necessary to pay for them So this can be very important and we can have other kind of topics we can define with consortium members over partners About the technical points of Sylab 5 what we are doing now, and we have nearly done is Taking the Sylab 4 cleaning the code We are going to use the code and make modules into the code It was an very old code and we needed to have it very new so the way we did Intakes a code with various modules So it will be easier to maintain and easier to have people work with us with Some parts of a code so Multifolding new graphic rendering this is very important and new graphic user interface and creation of these interface using Java And we are beginning of doing this for Sylab. I know that people say oh la la Java is very heavy It's not true. It depends what you do I can show you programs and example of programs using Java interface and very light so we want to do that and Search talks about in Sylab. There is a fixed stack When you use it of memory you can have more but you need to do it You want to have a new interpreter and new memory management with Dynamic allocation of memory The documentation that is true that some people here said that we need to improve it. We know that and also You know that at the present time psychosis completely developed outside of Sylab team it developed by this project, which is a research project It will stay in this research project that the part which is computer science which is graphic user interface Will be taken by Sylab team so all these points are very important for us and This is Sylab and What we want to do Here is modify the way the memory is used to modify the parser to modify the API between the parser and the The routine here and very important here Graphic user interface graphics Graphic user interface creation to have here Java taking care of everything. So we will have in the future only one version of Sylab working everywhere and Very important the interoperability with all the kind of software grid computing Visualization 3d or animation and very kind of things This is what we want to do for the future for Sylab I Talked about the future of Sylab in general, but I'm here And we need to talk about the future of Sylab in India I'm very happy to see many people already using Sylab at very high-level and The problem is that we don't know that It's not possible for us to know what people do with Sylab in the world. So I think that Conference like this are very important for that but what we can do in the future is to Strength the collaboration between us and you and India Everything is open. We can have a Sylab construction partner here in India. You are talking about user group To two entities only one. I don't know you can help us doing Sylab development now that I told you that say that will be modular will be possible and Make contribution by making toolboxes But also tutorials documentation There are a lot of things lot of work to do and what is very important is to make a coordination of everything because I don't know if it is this morning somebody Said that it was very difficult to know what other people do There is Sylab news group, but it's not enough So a strong coordination between you and us would be very important to share what we do Not to do twice the same thing and to be able to capitalise what people do in France In India and in the world. I think that it is really the way for the success for the future of Sylab
