This volume uses several computer algebra systems to ``activate" the papers, but
principally uses Maple. There are several reasons for this, but the main one
is that the CECM is a ``Maple shop".
Most of us have used Maple for many
years, and the Maple expertise locally available is by any standard
considerable, with Michael Monagan
(one of the Maple designers), Greg Fee, Simon Plouffe,
and Rob Corless
present and helping. Simon Fraser University
has had Maple in its mathematics courses for many
years, so there was a considerable level of background Maple ability in
the grad students, post-docs, and faculty associated with the project
as well.
