I am posting this message on behalf of a professor in the math department. He is looking for a program which will graphically solve partial differential equations for boundary value problems. He wants to be able to vary a single variable and watch the resulting curve changes. I don't expect to be able to find a program for such a specific application, but I said I'd ask. Anyone with any information please send it to: Paul H.

I would consult IBM's Academic Information Systems 472 Wheelers Farms Road Milfors CT 06460 This division (or whatever) of IBM has stimulated an extaordinary diversity of academic work over the past several years. At an ACIS meeting in July of 85 I saw some graphics simulations running that traced out certain conditions with boundry interactions. Strikes me that they were complicated enough to be instructive, but not real enough to be practical. (What are academic exercises for? o < ' . lincoln%iris@ran-unix.arpa / > ' `
