Description

A talk for the NSF Workshop: Future Directions of Symbolic Computation Research and their Applications to the Domain Sciences (April 30-May 1, 2009, University of Rhode Island)

Abstract:

I hope to explain some of the myriad ways in which symbolic computation, once the province of computational physics and math, is now percolating (sometimes flooding, sometimes trickling, sometimes, alas, reversing course) to the "real world". I also will try to explain why we might believe we have something of value to offer, and what I believe that something to be.
