Abstract

This paper considers Java as an implementation language for a starting part of a computer algebra library. It describes a design of basic arithmetic and multivariate polynomial interfaces and classes which are then employed in advanced parallel and distributed Groebner base algorithms and applications. The library is type-safe due to its design with Java's generic type parameters and thread-safe using Java's concurrent programming facilities.
