Mathematica

Mathematica is a software package that enables the user to solve complex systems of equations for a wide variety of mathematical, scientific and engineering applications. Mathematica is capable of solving such systems using both symbolic and numerical techniques. The program also provides the capability of producing professional-quality data displays, some of which can be used interactively. Mathematica is also well suited for numerical modeling and numerical simulations.
More information about Wolfram Research Inc. and Mathematica can be found at http://www.wolfram.com
A library of examples can be found by clicking on 'webMathematica Examples' or by going to http://library.wolfram.com/explorations/


Maple

Maple is a comprehensive computer system for advanced mathematics. It includes facilities for interactive algebra, calculus, discrete mathematics, graphics, numerical computation and many other areas of mathematics. It also provides a unique environment for rapid development of mathematical programs using its vast library of built-in functions and operations.

Linux

Linux, also known as GNU/Linux, is a free, UNIX-like operating system, developed originally for home PCs, but which now runs on a variety of platforms including PowerPC, Macintosh, Amiga, Atari, DEC Alpha, Sun Sparc, ARM, and many others. Developed under the GNU General Public License , the source code for Linux is freely available to everyone. It is this kernel that forms the base around which a Linux operating system is developed. There are now literally hundreds of companies and organizations and an equal number of individuals that have released their own versions of operating systems based on the Linux kernel. With millions of users worldwide, Linux is probably the most popular UNIX-like OS in the world.
