NAG is known for its wide-spread and acclaimed libraries of numerical and statistical algorithms. It also produces the computer algebra system Axiom which belongs to the same class of CAS such as Maple V, Mathematica, and MuPAD.
According to the press release, both companies propose `systems that can communicate with each other and across computer networks through emerging standards such as MathML and OpenMath.`
WMI currently develops a `successor product to Maple V` which will also contain numerical NAG library functions and plans to finish it in 1999.
