Abstract :
One of the important issues facing the development of the grid as the computational framework of the future is availability of grid-enabled software. In this context, we discuss possible approaches to constructing a grid-enabled version of a computer algebra system. Our case study involves Maple: the proposed Maple2g package allows the connection between Maple and the computational grids based on the Globus Toolkit. We present the design of the Maple2g package and follow with a thorough discussion of its implementation.
