Session 1
Title: New Developments on
Computer Algebra Packages
Organizers: Andres Iglesias (iglesias@unican.es)
Tetsuo Ida (Tetsuo.Ida@acm.org)

Description:
Computer Algebra Packages (CAP) are an integral part of
Mathematical Software. In addition to their powerful symbolic
manipulation capabilities, they also provide the users with a large
number of appealing features, such as arbitrary-precision calculations,
a fully integrated framework for numerical/symbolic computation, nice
visualization tools and graphical user interfaces (GUIs), reliable and
fast communication tools and protocols, the possibility of running
remote kernels and performing calculations on the Web, etc.
This session will focus on new software developments (packages,
notebooks, worksheets, libraries, etc.) carried out on any computer
algebra package and introducing innovative solutions to mathematical
and scientific problems. The session will also be a forum for the
discussion of the potential and real advantages and shortcomings of
these computer algebra systems for mathematical software.
