Abstract

ABSTRACT 0201770 Paul S. Wang Kent State U The Kent State University requests a three year research grant to support research on Internet Accessible Mathematical Computation (IAMC) and Web-based Mathematics Education (WME). The research will be conducted by Professor Paul S. Wang as Principal Investigator and two grad-uate research assistants. The proposed effective date is August 1, 2002. The proposed work extends progress already made, by the PI's group and others, in making mathematical computations easily accessible and conveniently interoperable on the Internet. The research involves protocol specification, design and implementation of prototypes, architecture of a WME system, and design/implementation of a WME content authoring language. The results have great potential for scientific research and mathematics education.
