This book is the productof my research at the EndowedChair of
Corporate Finance and Capital Markets at the European Business
School. Many people devoted their inspiration, time, and knowledge
in order to support me with my interdisciplinary research. Thank
you all for your support. Especially, I thank my academic
supervisor Prof. Ulrich Hommel, Ph.D., who provided me with the
freedom to pursue my research interests and who always s- ported me
generously. In addition, I am very grateful to my co-supervisor
Prof. Dr. Susanne Strahringer (TU Dresden), who graciously accepted
the task of refer- ing my book. Also, I thank Prof. Dr. Matthias
Krause of the Chair for Theoretical Computer Science in Mannheim
for the technical and computer scienti?c support. During my
research visits I received generous support from Prof. Yaneer Bar-
Yam (NECSI and Harvard) and Prof. John D. Sterman (MIT), who
introduced me to the ?eld of System Dynamics and Complex Systems,
as well as from Prof. Victor Mossotti (U.S. Geological Survey),
Prof. Hiroki Sayama (NECSI and Bingh- ton), Prof. Markus de Aguiar
(Universidade Estadual de Campinas), Prof. Michel Baranger (MIT),
Prof. Jay W. Forrester (MIT), and Prof. Brian D. Josephson
(Cambridge). Thank you very much for numerous inspiring
discussions.

MuPAD is a computer algebra project of the MathPAD group at the
University of Paderborn. MuPAD was designed as a parallel system.
The design and implemen tation of MuPAD grew out of the desire to
efficiently handle large data generated by algorithms used to
investigate the group theoretical structure of nonlinear sys tems.
Nevertheless, MuPAD outgrew this original goal and was developed as
a general purpose system and should be used as such. MuPAD had two
major design goals. As already mentioned, firstly we wanted to
prm.ide a tool for fast and efficient handling of large data. This
goal was motivated by the special problems which came up in our
research on nonlinear systems, where data of several GB are not
unusual. As a consequence of this MuPAD is a parallel computer
algebra system working on the basis of a shared memor)" machine.
Special interfaces, simulating hared memory, will be provided for
machines with a different architecture. A sequential version of
MuPAD is available which, nevertheless, in its high-end language
provides parallel constructs for programming. In this sequential
version parallEl blocks are executed at random, thus allowing for
logical tests of parallel programs on sequential machines. The
sequential MuPAD version is the topic of this refErence manual. The
second major design goal was to make sure that future versions of
MuPAD could be the basis for a system capable of learning during
interactive use."
