This problem of homological and commutative algebra, coming from algebraic geometry, was affirmatively proven in 1976. In part i we describe the subject matter of algebraic geometry, introduce the basic ringtheoretic and topological methods of the discipline, and then indicate how and why these two methods were combined midway through the past century. The workshop, as well as conference, focuses on the new interactions of algebraic topology with group theory, algebraic geometry and mathematical physics which come from looking at these fields through the eye of a homotopy theorist.
