  Axiom computer algebra system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I.e., mathematical objects (such as rings, fields, polynomials) as well as data structures from computer science (e.g., lists, trees, hash tables) are automatically typed.
When an operation is applied to an object the type of the object determines the behaviour of the operation (similar to OOP).
Axiom comes with an associated, though separable, programming language called A#.

 PARI/GP computer algebra system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
PARI/GP is a computer algebra system with the main aim of facilitating number theory computations.
It can be used to compute factorizations, to perform elliptic curve computations and perform algebraic number theory.
On the other hand, the three main advantages of the system are its speed (which can be between 5 and 100 times better on many computations), the possibility of using directly data types which are familiar to mathematicians, and its extensive algebraic number theory module which has no equivalent in the above-mentioned systems.

 Computer algebra system - LearnThis.Info Enclyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
The study of algorithms useful for computer algebra systems is known as computer algebra.
The run-time of numerical programs implemented in computer algebra systems is normally longer than that of equivalent programs implemented in systems such as MATLAB, GNU Octave or directly in C, because the computer algebra languages are often interpreted and the bignum system may cause overhead.
Computer algebra systems began to appear in the early 1970s, and evolved out of research into artificial intelligence (the fields are now regarded as largely separate).

Computational logic means the use of computers to produce formal proofs in a given logical system.
Advanced systems such as the UK HOL and the US PVS address both foundational logical issues and practical ones such as search and automation, and are supported by a mass of theoretical and practical work.
Our goal was to use computational logic to enhance the power, dependability and scope of computer algebra, by developing techniques that could be used effectively to solve problems arising in user domains.

Integrating Computer Algebra and Reasoning Applications are invited for two posts related to the ESPRC-supported 3 year project "Adding the Axioms to Axiom: Integrating Computer Algebra and Reasoning" at the University of Kent, in the Computing Laboratory (investigator Simon Thompson) and Institute of Mathematics (investigator John Shackell).
The project aims to explore the integration of reasoning capabilities into the Aldor library compiler for the Axiom computer algebra system, and to use this integrated logic to improve support for symbolic mathematics.
Familiarity with an Algebra System would be an asset, but the willingness to learn to program in Aldor is more important.

 EDP Dictionary - A
The {Axiom of Choice} (AC) implies that every set can be {well-ordered}, so every {infinite} {cardinality} is an aleph; but in the absence of AC there may be sets that can't be well-ordered (don't posses a {bijection} with any {ordinal}) and therefore have cardinality which is not an aleph.
In {set theory} the equivalent of an algebraic data type is a {discriminated union} - a set whose elements consist of a tag (equivalent to a constructor) and an object of a type corresponding to the tag (equivalent to the constructor arguments).
Computers are much pickier and less flexible about spelling than humans; thus, hackers need to be very precise when talking about characters, and have developed a considerable amount of verbal shorthand for them.

By "exact symbolic" we mean computation with polynomials whose coefficients are integers (of any size), rational numbers, or finite fields, as opposed to coefficients that are "floats" of a certain precision.
In the last few years several smaller CA systems focused on polynomials have been produced at universities by individual researchers or small teams.
In this paper we compare these small systems to each other and to two of the large systems (Maple and Magma) on a set of problems involving exact symbolic computation with polynomials and matrices.
