  • Rapid Research with Computer Algebra Systems
    doi: 10.21495/71-0-109 25th International Conference ENGINEERING MECHANICS 2019 Svratka, Czech Republic, 13 – 16 May 2019 RAPID RESEARCH WITH COMPUTER ALGEBRA SYSTEMS C. Fischer* Abstract: Computer algebra systems (CAS) are gaining popularity not only among young students and schol- ars but also as a tool for serious work. These highly complicated software systems, which used to just be regarded as toys for computer enthusiasts, have reached maturity. Nowadays such systems are available on a variety of computer platforms, starting from freely-available on-line services up to complex and expensive software packages. The aim of this review paper is to show some selected capabilities of CAS and point out some problems with their usage from the point of view of 25 years of experience. Keywords: Computer algebra system, Methodology, Wolfram Mathematica 1. Introduction The Wikipedia page (Wikipedia contributors, 2019a) defines CAS as a package comprising a set of algo- rithms for performing symbolic manipulations on algebraic objects, a language to implement them, and an environment in which to use the language. There are 35 different systems listed on the page, four of them discontinued. The oldest one, Reduce, was publicly released in 1968 (Hearn, 2005) and is still available as an open-source project. Maple (2019a) is among the most popular CAS. It was first publicly released in 1984 (Maple, 2019b) and is still popular, also among users in the Czech Republic. PTC Mathcad (2019) was published in 1986 in DOS as an engineering calculation solution, and gained popularity for its ability to work with typeset mathematical notation in combination with automatic computations.

    Treball Final de Màster MÀSTER EN ENGINYERIA INFORMÀTICA Escola Politècnica Superior Universitat de Lleida Mòdul d’Optimització per a Recursos del Transport Adrià Vall-llaura Salas Tutors: Antonio Llubes, Josep Lluís Lérida Data: Juny 2017 Pròleg Aquest projecte s’ha desenvolupat per donar solució a un problema de l’ordre del dia d’una empresa de transports. Es basa en el disseny i implementació d’un model matemàtic que ha de permetre optimitzar i automatitzar el sistema de planificació de viatges de l’empresa. Per tal de poder implementar l’algoritme s’han hagut de crear diversos mòduls que extreuen les dades del sistema ERP, les tracten, les envien a un servei web (REST) i aquest retorna un emparellament òptim entre els vehicles de l’empresa i les ordres dels clients. La primera fase del projecte, la teòrica, ha estat llarga en comparació amb les altres. En aquesta fase s’ha estudiat l’estat de l’art en la matèria i s’han repassat molts dels models més importants relacionats amb el transport per comprendre’n les seves particularitats. Amb els conceptes ben estudiats, s’ha procedit a desenvolupar un nou model matemàtic adaptat a les necessitats de la lògica de negoci de l’empresa de transports objecte d’aquest treball. Posteriorment s’ha passat a la fase d’implementació dels mòduls. En aquesta fase m’he trobat amb diferents limitacions tecnològiques degudes a l’antiguitat de l’ERP i a l’ús del sistema operatiu Windows. També han sorgit diferents problemes de rendiment que m’han fet redissenyar l’extracció de dades de l’ERP, el càlcul de distàncies i el mòdul d’optimització.

  • Report on Bachelor Thesis Institute of Economic Studies, Faculty of Social Sciences, Charles University in Prague
    Report on Bachelor Thesis Institute of Economic Studies, Faculty of Social Sciences, Charles University in Prague Student: Pavel Fišer Advisor: PhDr. Jiří Kukačka Title of the thesis: Econometric Analysis of Bitcoin and its 2013 Bubbles OVERALL ASSESSMENT (provided in English, Czech, or Slovak): The thesis "Econometric Analysis of Bitcoin and its 2013 Bubbles" thoroughly analyses the Bitcoin market between 2012 and 2015 from the econometric point of view with a special focus on two major bubble-crash events in 2013. Pavel not only fits standard static time series models but also extends the analysis via rolling estimation to capture possible dynamics of the market. This approach might be of a crucial importance in such a wild environment as virtual currencies generally are. Finally, Pavel fits the advanced Log-Periodic Power Law model (LPPM) model and analyses the Bitcoin prices in terms of the probability of the upcoming crash. Within this concept, Pavel introduces a contributive idea of focusing on the difference of the scaling ratios instead of the scaling ratio "lambda" itself. According to results of this work the "delta lambda" variable more clearly indicates the forthcoming crash. I am pleased to summarise at the very beginning that Pavel has written a quality piece of work and I can honestly suggest the highest grade (1). Pavel managed to get well familiar with relatively advanced master-level topics, coded for the first time using Wolfram Mathematica and Gretl, and was able to extract important conclusions from loads of time series econometric results. It might be important to note that Pavel managed to study and pass the IES module Econometrics II containing the ARIMA time series analysis from abroad during his Erasmus stay in London and moreover in the final semester Pavel successfully passed an optional advanced course of Applied Econometrics to master more advanced time series models and approaches.

  • Computational Mathematics with Sagemath, by Paul Zimmermann
    BULLETIN (New Series) OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY Volume 57, Number 3, July 2020, Pages 515–521 https://doi.org/10.1090/bull/1690 Article electronically published on January 24, 2020 Computational Mathematics with SageMath, by Paul Zimmermann, Alexandre Cas- amayou, Nathann Cohen, Guillaume Connan, Thierry Dumont, Laurent Fousse, Fran¸cois Maltey, Matthias Meulien, Marc Mezzarobba, Cl´ement Pernet, Nico- las M. Thi´ery, Erik Bray, John Cremona, Marcelo Forets, Alexandru Ghitza, and Hugh Thomas, Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 2018, xiv+464 pp., ISBN 978-1-611975-45-1, US$69.00 It is no exaggeration to say that in the past 40 years computer algebra systems (CAS) have changed the everyday practice of mathematics immensely. In general terms, CAS all deal with mathematical objects represented in symbolic form. Some, but not all, also provide interfaces to routines for numerical computation; some, but again not all, provide interfaces to graphical routines for visualization of math- ematical objects. Almost all of them provide programming languages to allow users to extend the packages’ functionality. All of them aim, in one way or another, to be “systems for doing mathematics by computer” as Stephen Wolfram’s Mathematica package [15] boldly proclaims. 1. Historical development of CAS The following discussion is meant to illustrate the range of such systems that have been created. It does not aim to be exhaustive, and the author apologizes in advance to anyone whose contributions have been omitted or overlooked. The first computer algebra systems in effect grew out of artificial intelligence research starting in the 1960s, but connections with that side of computer sci- ence have lessened over time.
