[Javamath-announce] JavaMath 1.0 (Beta)

[Andrew S. <an...@il...>]

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce that the first beta release (version 1.0) 
of the JavaMath API, is now available at http://javamath.sourceforge.net

JavaMath is free (GPL) software to enable mathematical programs in Java 
to use the computational capabilities of existing compute engines. 
While JavaMath can be used for stand-alone applications, the API 
is oriented toward the easy construction of Internet based 
client-server systems and Web pages.  So far, JavaMath implements
compute sessions with Maple and GAP.
