These proceedings reflect the special session on Experimental
Mathematics held January 5, 2009, at the Joint Mathematics Meetings
in Washington, DC as well as some papers specially solicited for
this volume. Experimental Mathematics is a recently structured
field of Mathematics that uses the computer and advanced computing
technology as a tool to perform experiments. These include the
analysis of examples, testing of new ideas, and the search of
patterns to suggest results and to complement existing analytical
rigor. The development of a broad spectrum of mathematical software
products, such as Mathematica® and MapleTM, has allowed
mathematicians of diverse backgrounds and interests to use the
computer as an essential tool as part of their daily work
environment. This volume reflects a wide range of topics related to
the young field of Experimental Mathematics. The use of computation
varies from aiming to exclude human input in the solution of a
problem to traditional mathematical questions for which computation
is a prominent tool.
