Computers in group theory: a survey
Computers are being applied to an increasingly diverse range of problems in group theory. The most important areas of application at present are coset enumeration,…
Methods of analyzing the control flow and data flow of programs during compilation are applied to transforming the program to improve object time efficiency. Dominance…
Computing polynomial resultants: Bezout's determinant vs. Collins' reduced P.R.S. algorithm
Algorithms for computing the resultant of two polynomials in several variables, a key repetitive step of computation in solving systems of polynomial equations by…
The role of programming in a Ph.D. computer science program
In this general paper the role of programming in advanced graduate training is discussed. Subject matter related to programming as well as programming per se is…
