Goal: increase the performance of the MathDox engine, which can be downloaded on [login to view URL] The software is meant for educational mathematical e-learning and it has a very innovative link to a Computer Algebra System (CAS) which enables content to be interactive (give targeted feedback to students). However, performance is still too slow. This project is a success if loading-time of processing user input and loading .mathdox pages is cut by 50% or within 3 seconds. Average loading time is now 8 secondes. (sample pages will be provided). We run on Apache Tomcat 5.5, and use XML pipeline with XSLT style-sheets Javascript is used combined with Orbeon Xforms to get user input. with regards, The SOWISO team
