Grant: Discovery Grants Program - Individual

University of Western Ontario

$43,000.00

Efficient algorithms in computer algebra and their applications

FY 2010-11

Summary
My field of research is computer algebra: very broadly, this stands for the study of mathematical problems that can be solved on a computer in an exact manner. Many problems in the academy or in industry require such solutions: important fields of applications are robotics (to plan the motion of robots) and cryptography (to design cryptographic protocols). However, some of these problems remain out of the reach of even the best software. The objectives of this proposal are the development of efficient algorithms and implementations to tackle such problems.
