On the Framework of Web-based Problem Solving Environments (特集 〔2003年度数式処理学会〕大会発表論文)

The first design of Lupin, a layered framework of Web-based, common Problem Solving Environments (PSEs) is proposed and discussed. The idea of invoking Web technologies such as the emerging Web services for Lupin’s approach; the conception of mathematical Web services and the implementation of Lupin based on the conception are briefly considered. A proof-of-concept system addressed by the combination of the current Web service protocols, MathML, Computer Algebra Systems (CASs), interactive math and the relevant XML technologies is also presented to check out the feasibility and disadvantages.
