Abstract :
The conceptual design and primary implementation steps of a symbolic algebra program based on MACSYMA for the design of accelerators, storage rings, and transport lines are discussed. The motivation for using symbolic algebra is discussed. A design case that shows the advantage of this approach is presented.<>
