Symbolic and algebraic computations are one of the fastest growing areas of scientific computing. In this paper we present an overview of the state-of-the-art in symbolic and algebraic computations on parallel and distributed computers and on grids. We give some background information, including typical application areas, and then give a list of past and on-going projects involving symbolic computations. We also attempt at concisely summarizing our findings. This article is based on the chapter on symbolic computations on grid that will appear in 2005 the book "Engineering the Grid:
