Abstract

MATHLAB is an on-line system, publicly available under the DECsystem-10 Tops-10 and TENEX operating systems, which provides computer aid for the mechanical symbolic processes encountered in analysis. It is capable of performing, automatically and symbolically, such common procedures as simplification, substitution, differentiation, polynomial factorization, indefinite integration, direct and inverse Laplace transforms, matrix inversion, and the solution of algebraic, simultaneous linear, and linear differential equations with constant (symbolic) coefficients. In addition, it provides bookkeeping services consonant with its on-line function. The presentation will consist of a twenty-minute sound movie intended to explain the motivation of MATHLAB and related systems.
