One of the features of these derivation is their reliance on algebraic and symbolic constructions. I would like, in this paper, to survey some of the symbolic and algebraic constructions which are used, and then draw some conclusions on the implications of this development for symbol manipulation systems. Let me start by sketching some of these derivations.","PeriodicalId":314618,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Manipulation","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1981-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114078002","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This version has been implemented in MACSYMA and tested successfully on examples in Boyce and DiPrima [1], Kamke [2], and Kovacic [3]. Modifications to the algorithm have been made to minimize the amount of code needed and to avoid the complete factorization of a polynomial called for. In Section 2 these issues are discussed and in Section 3 the author's current version of the algorithm is described.","PeriodicalId":314618,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Manipulation","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1981-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130260734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These systems have been designed to compute with elements in a fixed algebraic structure (usually the ring of real functions). Typical of the facilities provided are: the arithmetic operations of the ring, the calculation of polynomial gcd's, the location of the zeros of a polynomial; and some operations from calculus: differentiation, integration, the calculation of limits, and the analytic solution of certain classes of differential equations.

Fox, J.M. Greif, E.D. Mjolsness, L.J. Romans, T. Shaw and A.E. Terrano. The primary motivation for the construction of the program was the necessity of performing very complicated algebraic manipulations in certain areas of theoretical physics. The need to deal with advanced mathematical constructs required the program to be of great generality. In addition, the size of the calculations anticipated demanded that the program should operate quickly and be capable of handling very large amounts of data. The resulting program is expected to be valuable in a wide variety of applications.\u0000 In this paper, we describe some of the basic concepts and principles of SMP. The extensive capabilities of SMP are described, with examples, in the “SMP Handbook” (available on request from the authors).","PeriodicalId":314618,"journal":{"name":"Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Manipulation","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1981-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134309930","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
