MapleNet and Maplets under Maple 8

Maplets were reviewed as a package of Maple 7 by Keady. As part of a wider review of Maple 8 McCabe also discusses Maplets. McCabe’s review as with Keady’s  on Maplets in Maple 7 differs from this review in that our focus is on aspects related to MapleNet. (We also happen to think that McCabe may have been overcritical of the amount of detail needed to code Maplets. However like him we can also imagine future provision of higher level tools or Maplet authoring language elements which make the Maplet author’s coding task less detailed.)
