Introduction

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Computing Supplementa ((COMPUTING,volume 4))

Abstract

In this introduction we first give a working defmition of Computer algebra. We then describe the Organization of research activities in this field. Finally the overall structure and the intention of the present volume on Computer algebra is explained. Some technical information (basic references, notation etc.) about the volume is given.
