Mathematical Artifact Production: Broadening the View of “Doing Mathematics”

2004
In this paper we briefly consider the notion of doing mathematics. Based on some shortcomings of this movement, it is proposed that doing mathematics should be broadened to mathematical artifact production. This idea is explained and some insights are presented of the discoordinations South African teachers encounter when they engage in mathematics ...

The Social Production of Mathematics for Teaching

2008
This chapter aims to show the impact of culture on the learning of mathematics and consequently that studies of mathematics for teaching require strong theoretical frameworks that foreground the relationship between culture and pedagogy. For this purpose, we describe two different research projects in Southern Africa, each focused on the notion of ...

Mathematical Aspects of Leonardo’s Production in Milan

2020
Leonardo da Vinci is traditionally considered as one of the most notable guests in Milan, of all times. The opportunity to consider this important protagonist of the Renaissance, artist and scientist at the same time, leads us to analyze more closely the period he spent in Milan at the Sforza Court. Particularly we refer to the works carried out by him

Mathematics learning and aesthetic production

ZDM, 2008
Some teaching projects in which the learning of mathematics was combined with mainly theatrical productions are reported on. They are related and opposed to an approach of drama in education by Pesci and the proposals of Sinclair for mathematics teaching and beauty.

Mathematical Theory of Production Planning.

Journal of the Operational Research Society, 1984
The book proposes a unified mathematical treatment of production planning and production smoothing problems, in the framework of optimal control theory. General concave and convex cost models which relate most closely to real life applications are considered. Planning horizon results are always central to the discussion and developments.

The production of better mathematical software

Communications of the ACM, 1972
Some observations are made on steps to be taken toward the creation of better mathematical software. These steps suggest the need for a coordinated effort and the creation of a center to focus activities in this area.

Mathematical Model of Clonal Selection and Antibody Production

Nature, 1970
Equations are developed to describe the effects of interaction between antigen and target cell. The model shows promise in predicting the constants of simple experimental systems.
