1 Introduction and summary of results

This report gives the result of solving the 1,940 differential equations from Kamke book in Mathematica and Maple on windows 10, 64 bit OS. PC with 128 GB RAM.

The command AboluteTiming[] was used in Mathematica to obtain the CPU time. In Maple the following commands were used for this purpose

     t0 := time[real](): 
     timeOut := 5*60; 
     result_of_solve := timelimit(timeOut,dsolve(ode[i])); 
     cpu_time := time[real]()-t0:

Both Maple and Mathematica had a CPU time limit of 5 minutes to complete each problem else the problem is considered not solved and marked as timed out.

When Mathematica return DifferentialRoot as a solution to an ODE this was counted as not solved. Similarly, when Maple return DESol or ODSESolStruc, this was also counted as not solved.
