  Package of Mathematical Software Systems </h1>


<p>
<a href="http://www.openxm.org">The OpenXM project  </a>
provides a package of mathematical software systems,
which are integrated by 
the OpenXM protocol. 
OpenXM is an abbreviation of Open message eXchange for Mathematics.

The computer algebra system
<a href="http://www.math.kobe-u.ac.jp/Asir/index.html">
Risa/Asir</a>
<img src="file:///usr/share/pixmaps/hopo_std_color.xpm"/>,
which is made in Japan,
is a main client of the package and
all software systems in the package can be used from Risa/Asir.
</p>

<h2> <font color="red"> How to start Risa/Asir </font> </h2>
From the KDE menu, choose <br>
<font color="green"> Application </font>
--> 
<font color="green"> Mathematics </font>
--> 
<font color="green"> Asir(OpenXM) <img src="file:///usr/share/pixmaps/hopo_std_color.xpm"/> 
</font>
<br>
In order to use Asir(OpenXM), 
your computer must be connected to the internet, because
a part of Risa/Asir is downloaded from ftp.math.kobe-u.ac.jp. <br>
<font color="cyan">
NOTE:
A part of Asir cannot be included in the CD because of a restriction
of the Risa/Asir license and the part is downloaded from the internet
after you agree with the license.
The size of the part is less than 2 Mega bytes.
The part is saved under your home directory
with the names .asir-tmp, .TeXmacs, .asirrc. 
If you have a USB memory, you can save the files of your home directory
to the USB memory.
Choose the KDE menu <br>
knoppix --> configure --> create persistent home directory <br>
As to details, see a knoppix manual.
</font>
<br>
Once you downloaded, you can use Asir(OpenMX) from the TeXmacs, too.
In the TeXmacs menu, choose<br>
<font color="gree"> Insert  </font>
-->
<font color="gree"> session </font>
-->
<font color="gree"> OpenXM[asir,sm1] </font> <br>
The screeen will look like

this</a>.


<h2> <font color="red"> What kind of computation can I do by Risa/Asir? </font> </h2>
Here are some examples
<ol>
<li>  <font color="blue"> fctr(x^100-1);   </font> 
   Factorization of x <sup> 100 </sup> - 1  
<li>  <font color="blue">
     ifplot(x^3-y^2);
    </font>
  Drawing the zero set of x <sup> 3 </sup> - y <sup> 2 </sup> = 0.
<li>  <font color="blue">
     gnuplot.heat(0.0001,100);
    </font>
    Solving the heat equation by using the forward difference scheme.
    The time step is 0.0001.
<li>  <font color="blue">
   dp_gr_main([x^2+y^2-4,x*y-1] | v=[x,y], order=[[x,1]]);
     </font>
   <br>
   Computation of the Grobner basis of
   x <sup> 2 </sup> +y <sup> 2 </sup> -4, x y -1  
   with the weight 1 for the variable x and the weight 0 
   for the variable y.
<li> <font color="blue">
 F=[x^2+y^2-4,x*y-1]; V=[x,y]; 
 dp_gr_main(map(dp_ptod,F,V) | v=V, order=[[x,1]]);
</font>
The same computation, but the answer is given by DP (distributed polynomial).
<li> Others:
A faster Grobner basis computation (nd_gr_main), 
primary ideal decomposition (primadec), factorization in algebraic
extensions of Q (afctr), computation in the ring of differential operators
(*weyl*), number theoretic functions in pari, ... 
</ol>
