Michael Wester

Date: July 20th (Saturday)
Time: 10:37.55-11:00
Abstract
General purpose computer algebra systems have many wonderful abilities. But how easy are they really to use in practice? Can the answers they produce be trusted? In this talk, I will give some examples of both the good and the bad (selected from a collection of now more than 400 problems) with an occasional philosophical digression.
