Initial Announcement

Overview:

Improved algorithms, better implementations, and faster computers
have enabled many previously time-consuming computer algebra
computations to be performed routinely and have extended the range of
what is practically possible to compute. However, there remains many
computations that still require excessive computing time, and while
existing computer algebra systems have had some practical success in
applications, their widespread use in computational science
and engineering remains limited. Part of this is due to inherent
difficulties of exact computation; nevertheless, there are many cases
where the performance achieved by an implementation could be
dramatically
improved through optimized implementations and parallel computation and
the use of special purpose hardware.

While the computer algebra community has begun to incorporate high
performance computing techniques, tuning algorithms to perform well on
modern computer architectures and adapting algorithms and systems to
parallel computers can be a difficult and time consuming process; much
work
remains in these directions. Moreover, there are many challenges in
achieving
high-performance in computer algebra algorithm implementations due to
their
irregular structure and higher level data types. Also the complexity of
computer algebra systems make the incorporation of parallel computation
challenging.

This session is devoted to exploring the application of high-performance
computing to computer algebra algorithms, applications and systems,
and the
research and implementation challenges this poses.
