Mathematical Software - ICMS 2006

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Second International Congress on Mathematical Software, ICMS 2006. The book presents 45 revised full papers, carefully reviewed and selected for presentation. The papers are organized in topical sections on new developments in computer algebra packages, interfacing computer algebra in mathematical visualization, software for algebraic geometry and related topics, number-theoretical software, methods in computational number theory, free software for computer algebra, and general issues.
