- The
Professional Toolbox Series provides domain-specific
tools that transform the core Maplesoft products
to discipline-specific applications; one such
tool is the Global Optimization Toolbox, which
allows users to easily formulate an optimization
model inside the powerful Maple numeric and symbolic
system, and then use world-class Maple numeric
solvers to return the best answer.
- Maple
E-Books and Study Guides are electronic versions
of standard math textbooks designed to assist
students in grasping fundamental concepts through
visualization, practice and theory. An example
is Advanced Engineering Mathematics with Maple,
the definitive reference software and textbook
for engineering mathematics.
- MapleConnect™ is
a developer support program designed to help third
party members of Maplesoft’s unique community
capitalize on their creativity, knowledge, and ideas
by commercializing their intellectual property. This
program has resulted in a broad range of third party
