The term “from months to days” is a favorite slogan of mine and I have relied on it religiously for over two decades to illustrate the fundamental benefit of symbolic computation. Whether it’s the efficient development of complex physical models using MapleSim, or exploration of parametric design surface equations (my dissertation) using good old fashioned Maple V Release 2, the punch that symbolic computation provided was to automate the algebraic mechanics...

I found the below text here :  scienceblogs.com/goodmath/2008/07/back_to_math_solving_zerosum_g.php

My question is how can I set up this problem in Maple ?!

The objective function should be: min(E(H1), E(H2), E(H3))
constraint:  Σp_i=1, and ∀i: 0≤p_i≤1.
solution: p₁=0.57, p₂=0.17, p₃=0.26.

i have two quotes :

#1:

You confuse science with engineering, publication with patents. Intellectual property law does not recognize ownership of scientific truth. Your theory is true, or it isn't. You don't 'own' it. An apple does not need Isaac Newton's permission to fall to the ground. The primary protections for inventions are trade secret and patents. The primary protection for other intellectual property is copyright, and wise choices in how you use it and publish it.

Yesterday I attended a lecture by Fran Allen, as part of the "David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science, University of Waterloo, Distinguished Lecture Series".  Allen worked a IBM Research from 1957 to 2002, she was awarded the ACM's Turing Award in 2006.  Here is her biography from Wikipedia (let's hope it is accurate). 

Aside from some technical issues (why can't a room full of computer science professors and students successfully attach a laptop to a projector?) the talk was quite interesting.  There were two main sections, the first discussed Allen's career at IBM and the second was about the future of computer science.  Allen's work at IBM focused mostly on compilers and high performance computing.  She made a few interesting comments about the importance of high performance computing.  For example, one of the systems she worked on was designed and used to model the detonations of nuclear weapons.  The development of this system ended the need for the United Stated to perform actual test detonations.

please help me...as you read the subject of my   message you easy t think an idea what may you have..email me willing t help...

coz we are developing another sorting algorithm that claims that our algorithm is faater than quick sort algorithm in terms in numbers and characters..

 

please help  me to evaluate our new develop algorithm..

email me: abegail_228710@yahoo.com

looking forward yuor reply

i am asian woman, live in the philippines...and i am 22 years of age..student of computer science

Anyone want to try isprime(2-1) for me?

One of the greatest pleasures of my job is meeting users and learning first hand of their achievements (hopefully with our products). Last week was a particularly eventful week and a distinct highlight was a visit our friends at the Canadian Space Agency (CSA) in Montréal.

I have a problem in cpu usage.
My PC: X86- Intel Core 2 duo 2.2GHz - WinXP-SP2-RAM 2GB FSB 1066

I believe that the basic language in which the Maplesoft writers

code Maple is Java.  That means that the programmers at Maplesoft

had to have written TONS of Java classes, such as LinearAlgebra,

with lots of methods, such as resultants and determinants.

I would think they would have posted these Java classes into the Java library

I have some background in computer science; which may help explain my interest in Maple. :) In my Computer Science studies; one thing we were required to do was to minimize boolean expressions. I found this to be extremely tedious; something that you really want the computer to do for you. At least; that is how I saw it. So, I always thought that I would write a program to do; what we were doing manually. The result is the following application: Minimize Boolean Expression Worksheet

This is to inform you that we are now shipping the newest version of Maple T.A. – Maple T.A. 3.0. Maple T.A. is an easy-to-use web-based system for creating tests and assignments, automatically assessing student responses and performance. It supports complex, free-form entry of mathematical equations and intelligent evaluation of responses, making it ideal for mathematics, science, or any course that requires mathematics. The new edition – Maple T.A. 3.0 – comes with increased flexibility in content creation, an enhanced user interface and improved grading and assessment capabilities

We have an opening for a software developer in the Mathematical Software Development group at Maplesoft. This opportunity involves joining a team of highly educated and motivated people who are developing and implementing sophisticated algorithms for mathematics at all levels, from undergraduate education through to professional research. The successful candidate will have a strong background in both mathematics and computer science, preferably with an advanced degree. Experience with Maple, particularly with programming in Maple, is a definite asset.

The Academy of Sciences owes its origin to Colbert's plan to create a general academy. He chose a small group of scholars who met on December 22, 1666 in the King's library, and thereafter held twice-weekly working meetings there. On August 22, 1795, a National Institute of Sciences and Arts was put in place, bringing together the old academies of the sciences, literature and arts. In 1816, the Academy of Sciences became autonomous, while forming part of the Institute of France; the head of State remained its patron. The Academy proceedings were published under the name Comptes Rendus de l'Académie des Sciences (1835-1965).

The Cité des sciences et de l'industrie (literally "City of sciences and industries"), is one of the great science museums of Paris. An hemispheric movie theatre, called La Géode is located very close to la Cité des sciences et de l'industrie.
