Salut,
I am deeply interested in using an
open-source symbolic computation kernel under applications such as Matlab
(and to keep open, Scilab and Octave). I think this would be an alternative to
(very) expensive solutions proposed by The Mathworks, to build it upon
GiNaC.
A few questions then:
* is there a manner of doing this by implementing a
kernel usable for the three softwares mentionned, and developping specific code
only for interfacing ?
* are there any legal problems since such a toolbox
exists under Matlab (built on Maple) ?
* anyone interested for such developments will
express a specific list of desiderata (control, maths,...). How to organize the
project so as to provide anyone with the routines he needs
?
* What do you think of this ? Does there exist any such
project ?
I am working under Matlab, that's why this proprietary
software is mentionned here.
Regards,
Hervé Tanguy
