Design and Implementation of Symbolic Computation Systems

This volume constitutes the proceedings of theInternational Symposium on Design and Implementation ofSymbolic Computation Systems (DISCO '93), held in Gmunden,Austria, in September 1993. The growing importance of systems for symbolic computationhas greatly influenced the decision of organizing this thirdconference in the series: DISCO '93 focuses mainly on themost innovative methodological and technological aspects ofthe design and implementation of hardware and softwaresystems for symbolic and algebraic computation, automatedreasoning, geometric modeling and computation, and automaticprogramming. The general objective of DISCO '93 is topresent an up-to-date view of the field and to serve as aforum insymbolic computation for the scientific exchangeamong academic, industrial and user communities. Besides invited talks by Buchberger, Monagan, Omodeo andHong, the volume contains 28 contributions, carefullyselected by a highly competent international programcommittee from a total of 56 submissions.
