PSPCLink: A Cooperation Between General Symbolic and Poisson Series Processors

Poisson series appear frequently in problems of non-linear dynamics and celestial mechanics. The size of such mathematical objects makes their manipulation by means of general symbolic processors (GSP) inefficient. Special processors named Poisson series processors (PSP) have been created to handle them in a more efficient way. We propose here a way to combine the flexibility and easy use of GSPs with the power of PSPs. Using the communication toolMathLinkwe produced PSPCLink to connectMathematicawith PSPC, a PSP of our own creation. PSPCLink is a set of C-files and oneMathematicapackage. Compiling the C-files we created an executable program to be called fromMathematica. With PSPCLink we use the PSPC functions in a way completely integrated intoMathematicataking advantage of the good properties of bothMathematicaand PSPC.
