Some frequently employed algorithms in geosciences are parallel by nature (embarrasingly parallel algorithms) and some others can be parallelized via data parallelization. Algorithms like probability analysis, linear homotopy continuation method, Gauss-Jacobi combinatorial technique are belonging to the first group, while others like algorithms for digital image ...

Mathematica is a very powerful tool for work, but it is an equally powerful tool for play. Just as Mathematica can crunch numbers and solve complicated problems for researchers, engineers, students, teachers, and others, Mathematica can also automate repetitive tasks, communicate with gadgets, interact with online services, and create unique mashups.

VisualDSolve is a Mathematica e-book and accompanying package showing how Mathematica's visualization tools can be used to enhance the viewing of solutions to differential equations. The book contains 18 chapters; the first 5 serve as a manual to the many functions of the package, and the other 13 are comprehensive examples. The package ...

Mathematica 7 includes parallel computing as a standard part of the system, thus offering easy access to parallelism for everyone with a multi-core computer. We look at experiences gained from user feedback and discuss enhancements forthcoming with the next version of Mathematica, as well as ideas for new features.

The ubiquitous Manipulate function, which will be used in most talks at this conference, is the basis for such ventures as the Wolfram Demonstrations Project and Mathematica Player. But just how well do you know the Manipulate function? In this talk, we will examine some of its lesser known features, ranging from those that are fully documented to those that are not ...

Work presented at ACA 2008, RISC Linz, Austria, July 2008. Session: Gröbner Bases and their Applications Abstract: We discuss computation of approximate Gröbner bases at high but finite precision. We show how this can be used to deduce exact results for various applications. Examples include implicitizing surfaces, finding multivariate polynomial greatest common ...

This is from a rpesentation at ACA 2008, RISC, Linz, Austria, July 2008. Session on Symbolic and Numeric Computation. Abstract We discuss computation of Gröbner bases using approximate arithmetic for coefficients. We show how certain considerations of tolerance, corresponding roughly to accuracy and precision from numeric computation, allow us to obtain good ...

This is from work presented at ADG 2006, Pontevedra, Spain, August 30, 2006. Abstract It is known that five points in R^3 generically determine a finite number of cylinders containing those points. We discuss ways in which it can be shown that the generic (complex) number of solutions, with multiplicity, is six, of which an even number will be real valued and ...

This is an extended version of work presented at ISSAC 2005, Beijing, July 2005. Abstract Over the past few decades several variations on a 'half GCD' algorithm for obtaining the pair of terms in the middle of a Euclidean sequence have been proposed. In the integer case algorithm design and proof of correctness are complicated by the effect of carries. This paper ...

I will show how lattice reduction and branch-and-bound methods may be used in tandem to solve Frobenius instance problems. We apply much the same methods to other aspects of finding Frobenius numbers. Moreover the instance solver can be used to give good (as in tight, with high probability) bounds on the ...
