LATIN 2000: Theoretical Informatics

4th Latin American Symposium Punta Del Esk, Uruguay, April 10-14, 2000 Proceedings

By: Gaston H. Gonnet,Daniel Panario

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference, Latin American Theoretical Informatics, LATIN 2000, held in Punta del Est, Uruguay, in April 2000. The 42 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 87 submissions from 26 countries. Also included are abstracts or full papers of several invited talks. The papers are organized in topical sections on random structures and algorithms, complexity, computational number theory and cryptography, algebraic algorithms, computability, automata and formal languages, and logic and programming theory.

Scientific Computation

By: Gaston H. Gonnet,Ralf Scholl

Using real-life applications, this graduate-level textbook introduces different mathematical methods of scientific computation to solve minimization problems using examples ranging from locating an aircraft, finding the best time to replace a computer, analyzing developments on the stock market, and constructing phylogenetic trees. The textbook focuses on several methods, including nonlinear least squares with confidence analysis, singular value decomposition, best basis, dynamic programming, linear programming, and various optimization procedures. Each chapter solves several realistic problems, introducing the modeling optimization techniques and simulation as required. This allows readers to see how the methods are put to use, making it easier to grasp the basic ideas. There are also worked examples, practical notes, and background materials to help the reader understand the topics covered. Interactive exercises are available at www.cambridge.org/9780521849890.

Maple V Library Reference Manual

By: Bruce W. Char,Keith O. Geddes,Gaston H. Gonnet,Benton L. Leong,Michael B. Monagan,Stephen Watt

The design and implementation of the Maple system is an on-going project of the Symbolic Com putation Group at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada. This manual corresponds with version V (roman numeral five) of the Maple system. The on-line help subsystem can be invoked from within a Maple session to view documentation on specific topics. In particular, the command ?updates points the user to documentation updates for each new version of Maple. The Maple project was first conceived in the autumn of 1980, growing out of discussions on the state of symbolic computation at the University of Waterloo. The authors wish to acknowledge many fruitful discussions with colleagues at the University of Waterloo, particularly Morven Gen tleman, Michael Malcolm, and Frank Tompa. It was recognized in these discussions that none ofthe locaIly-available systems for symbolic computation provided the facilities that should be expected for symbolic computation in modern computing environments. We concluded that since the basic design decisions for the then-current symbolic systems such as ALTRAN, CAMAL, REDUCE, and MACSYMA were based on 1960's computing technology, it would be wise to design a new system "from scratch". Thus we could take advantage of the software engineering technology which had become available in recent years, as well as drawing from the lessons of experience. Maple's basic features (elementary data structures, Input/output, arithmetic with numbers, and elementary simplification) are coded in a systems programming language for efficiency.

First Leaves: A Tutorial Introduction to Maple V

By: Bruce W. Char,Keith O. Geddes,Gaston H. Gonnet,Benton L. Leong,Michael B. Monagan,Stephen M. Watt

This tutorial shows how to use Maple both as a calculator with instant access to hundreds of high-level math routines and as a programming language for more demanding tasks. It covers topics such as the basic data types and statements in the Maple language. It explains the differences between numeric computation and symbolic computation and illustrates how both are used in Maple. Extensive "how-to" examples are used throughout the tutorial to show how common types of calculations can be expressed easily in Maple. The manual also uses many graphics examples to illustrate the way in which 2D and 3D graphics can aid in understanding the behavior of functions.
