The workshop aims at a cooperation of Axiom developers with developers of packages written for other Computer Algebra Systems, and mathematicians that would like to use a computer algebra system to perform experiments.

One goal of the workshop is to learn about the mathematical theory, the design of packages written for other CAS and to make those functionalities available in Axiom.

If you would like to attend the workshop, please send mail to risc2007@axiom-developer.org . There will be time for a very limited number of contributed talks. If you would like to give a talk, please send us title and a short abstract as soon as possible.

There will be no conference fee, but it is expected that participants pay accommodation and meals themselves. There is a limited number of rooms available in Hagenberg for approximately 28 EUR/night including breakfast.

The following talks are planned:

• François Descouens and Nicolas Thiéry

  Symmetric functions and Hopf algebras

  Usage and design in MuPAD-Combinat

• Bertfried Fauser

  Calculations in character Hopf algebras using SCHUR and Maple

• Harald Fripertinger

  TBA

• Axel Kohnert

  Symmetric functions in MAGMA

Organisers: Ralf Hemmecke and Martin Rubey
