 Maxima - A GPL CAS based on DOE-MACSYMA   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Maxima is a system for the manipulation of symbolic and numerical expressions, including differentiation, integration, Taylor series, Laplace transforms, ordinary differential equations, systems of linear equations, and vectors, matrices, and tensors.
Maxima produces high precision results by using exact fractions and arbitrarily long floating point representations, and can plot functions and data in two and three dimensions.
It was his efforts and skill which have made the survival of Maxima possible, and we are very grateful to him for volunteering his time and expert knowledge to keep the original DOE Macsyma code alive and well.

The MAXIMA team, consisting of 22 collaborators from 13 institutions and five countries, is funded by the National Science Foundation and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, with the Department of Energy supporting the data analysis.
MAXIMA looked with finer resolution at an area representing 0.3 percent of the sky - a spot about 11 degrees on a side, or 22 times broader than the full moon - in a northern region of the sky near the constellation Draco.
MAXIMA, launched from the U.S., can fly once or twice a year, is more sensitive and looks at a smaller area of the sky with finer detail, while BOOMERANG gathers data over a larger area of sky.

 2004 Nissan Maxima - Detailed Pricing and Specifications - MSN Autos
The first Maxima was unveiled for the 1981 model year, getting a V6 for the first time in 1984.
Nissan originally designed the Maxima model line to cover a broad "price walk," meaning buyers seeking luxury, performance, or simply a roomy, well-engineered sedan would be able to find a car that suits their tastes and budgets.
Nissan gave the Maxima a facelift as well as some power and suspension upgrades in 2002 which kept the sport sedan fresh until its redesign for 2004.

 2006 Nissan Maxima - Ratings & Reviews - Dan Jedlicka - MSN Autos
The Maxima was introduced in 1981 and has been a solid seller—even when sales of other Nissan models were almost in the dumpster.
Older versions of the Maxima were called a "4-door sports car," and that's never been truer than with the new version.
The Maxima essentially is a family sedan, so its standard safety items include side airbags up front, and both front and rear side-curtain airbags for head protection of outboard occupants in a crash.

The fourth and fifth generation Maxima utilized a rear "multi-link beam" non-independent suspension which was assailed by enthusiasts and the press alike but these cars still managed to carve an enthusiast following due to the slick VQ engine.
Previous Maximas were assembled in Japan at Nissan's Oppama plant alongside the Infiniti I30/I35.
Nissan's obvious aim is to at least differentiate the Maxima apart from the similar power train equipped Altima 3.5 V-6 with a higher price ceiling and of course the aforementioned amenities.

 Nissan Maxima Reviews and Ratings - 2003 Nissan Maxima
With the impending arrival of an all-new Maxima, we wrangled an old-style version for a one-week test on the byways of Southern California to discern its position relative to the Altima and to establish a benchmark against which we could measure the new Maxima when it debuts.
In evidence on the Maxima GLE is leather upholstery of fine grain and finish, quality materials covering the top of the dashboard and doors, and fake wood trim to add warmth and elegance to the cabin.
Maxima buyers are among Nissan's most loyal, and the company realizes that it's been awhile since its flagship model has been worthy of their devotion.

 MAXIMA
Maxima is a descendant of DOE Macsyma, which had its origins in the late 1960s at MIT.
It was his efforts and skill which have made the survival of Maxima possible, and we are very grateful to him for volunteering his time and skill to keep the original Macsyma code alive and well.
Maxima itself is reasonably feature complete at this stage, with abilities such as symbolic integration, 3D plotting, and an ODE solver, but there is a lot of work yet to be done in terms of bug fixing, cleanup, and documentation.

If the fourth gen Maxima was controversial to many, then the fifth gen Maxima was almost shocking to some.
Maxima SEs can also be had with a 6 speed manual available with an optional helical limited slip differential while "lesser" Altima 3.5 SEs only come in a 5 speed manual with no limited slip differential.
Perhaps the Maxima isn't as special as it was a few years ago but look in the right places and it still has advantages over the new Altima.

 Maxima and minima at opensource encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Finding global maxima and minima is the goal of optimization.
For twice-differentiable functions in one variable, a simple technique for finding local maxima and minima is to look for stationary points, which are points where the first derivative is zero.
If the second derivative at a stationary point is positive, the point is a local minimum; if it is negative, the point is a local maximum; if it is zero, further investigation is required.

 Cattleya maxima
Cattleya maxima is one of the few species of the large-flowered cattleyas that are easy to identify from their color.
The tall-pseudobulb C. maxima, however, grows near sea level, where night temperatures are in the high 60s F to low 70s F. To grow the tall-pseudobulb C. maxima well, the night temperature should not fall below 65 F, so you should put them in the warmest part of the intermediate greenhouse.
Cattleya maxima should be repotted as soon as it makes new roots from the lead pseudobulb, and should be fertilized only when it is actively growing in the spring and summer.

 nissan maxima Reviews and Ratings - 2004 Nissan Maxima
The new Maxima will go on sale in March at the 1,100 Nissan dealers in the U.S. Its exterior and interior were designed at Nissan Technical Center (NTC) in Atsugi, Japan and it was assembled for the first time in the United States at Nissan's North America Manufacturing Smyrna & Decherd Tennessee Plant.
Nissan wants to emphasize that the mid-sized Maxima has evolved from a speedy family sedan to a high-end sports car and it is now being positioned against Acura TL, Audi A4 V6 and Toyota Avalon, instead of the Camry and Accord.
Maxima is available in two trim levels, SE and SL.

Maxima gauges continue to be very sporty looking, rather than conservative.
Although the newest Maxima is available with a six-speed manual transmission, our $27,099 GLE tester had a four-speed automatic transmission mated to the 3.5-liter V-6.
This matters a great deal, because the six-speed SE (also available with the automatic) also can be had with a limited-slip differential for the front-wheel (driving) wheels, or traction control if you get the automatic.

Produced by a commission of over two thousand scholars in 1408, it purported to record all knowledge of the Confucian canon, Buddhism, history, philosophy, astronomy, geography, medicine, and the arts.
