NAME: Peter Paule ADDRESS: Research Institute for Symbolic Computation (RISC), J. Kepler University, A-4040 Linz, AUSTRIA EMAIL ADDRESS: Peter.Paule@risc.uni-linz.ac.at TITLE OF TALK: Algorithmic aspects of q-hypergeometric summation ABSTRACT OF TALK: WZ-theory has prepared the grounds for an algorithmic treatment of q-hypergeometric summation. The talk highlights computational aspects that are relevant not only for automatic proving but also for heuristic investigation. For instance, we discuss: the production of recurrences under order-constraints, order reduction by "creative symmetrizing", qWZ-duality, Bailey-chains, multi-basic summation, and q-multisums. Corresponding algorithmic tools have been implemented by Axel Riese who will present his Mathematica packages in form of a software demo.
