CASC 2005 continued a tradition - started in 1998 - of
international c- ferences on the latest advances in the application
of computer algebra systems (CASs) and methods to the solution of
various problems in scienti?c computing. The methods of scienti?c
computing play an important role in research and engineering
applications in the natural and the engineering sciences. The sign-
icance and impact of computer algebra methods and computer algebra
systems for scienti?c computing has increased considerably in
recent times. Nowadays,
suchgeneral-purposecomputeralgebrasystemsasMaple, Magma,
Mathematica, MuPAD, Singular, CoCoA and others enable their users
to solve the following three important tasks within a uniform
framework: (a) symbolic manipulation; (b) numerical computation;
(c) visualization. The ongoing development of such systems,
including their integrationand ad- tation to modern software
environments, puts them at the forefront in scienti?c computing and
enables the practicalsolution of many complex applied problems in
the domains of natural sciences and engineering. Greece o?ers
excellent infrastructures for hosting international conferences,
and this was a reason for us to choose the city of Kalamata,
Greece, as the lo- tion for CASC 2005, the eighth conference in the
sequenceof CASC conferences. The seven earlier CASC conferences,
CASC 1998, CASC 1999, CASC 2000, CASC 2001, CASC 2002, CASC 2003,
and CASC 2004 were held, respectively, in St. Petersburg, Russia,
in Munich, Germany, in Samarkand, Uzbekistan, in Konstanz, Germany,
in the Crimea (Ukraine), in Passau (Germany), and in St.
Petersburg, Russia, and they proved to be successf
The development of powerful computer algebra systems has
considerably ex tended the scope of problems of scientific
computing which can now be solved successfully with the aid of
computers. However, as the field of applications of computer
algebra in scientific computing becomes broader and more complex,
there is a danger of separation between theory, systems, and
applications. For this reason, we felt the need to bring together
the researchers who now ap ply the tools of computer algebra for
the solution of problems in scientific computing, in order to
foster new and closer interactions. CASC'99 is the second
conference devoted to applications of computer al gebra in
scientific computing. The first conference in this sequence,
CASC'98, was held 20-24 April 1998 in St. Petersburg, Russia. This
volume contains revised versions of the papers submitted by the par
ticipants and accepted by the program committee after a thorough
reviewing process. The collection of papers included in the
proceedings covers various topics of computer algebra methods,
algorithms and software applied to scien tific computing:
symbolic-numeric analysis and solving differential equations,
efficient computations with polynomials, groups, matrices and other
related objects, special purpose programming environments,
application to physics, mechanics, optics and to other areas. In
particular, a significant group of papers deals with applications
of com puter algebra methods for the solution of current problems
in group theory, which mostly arise in mathematical physics."
