Computer algebra modeling in science and engineering

The progressive impact of the Computer Algebra Systems (CAS) in science-based disciplines vividly is noticeable. It is rare to encounter a scientific investigation that is immune from its beneficial influences. Symbolic capabilities of the CAS provide forum to perform amazing calculations that practically are impossible otherwise. Within the last 30 years, applications of the CAS are extended beyond the peculiarities of scientific disciplines such as: biology, chemistry, microbiology, and physics, and has become the tool of the choice for analyzing engineering and mathematical challenging problems. For instance, dynamic simulations of engineering issues are addressed, and mathematical conjectures are formulated and verified. Applications of the CAS lend it beyond the researchers’ tools and have become powerful pedagogical instruments. The latter is suitable to engage the computer savvy generation promoting the discipline of interest.

The purpose of organizing this session is to bring together enthusiastic users of the Computer Algebra Systems in science and engineering. Expected topics of presentations include (but are not limited to):

• symbolic and numerical methods solving ODEs
• modeling and simulation in physics
• simulation of quantum computation
• perturbation theories
• applications in biology, chemistry, and microbiology
• modeling in finance and economics
