  Abstract &
  Background
An automated inequality-proving algorithm is presented based on a mixed method including a so-called cell-decomposition. That is implemented by a Maple program named ¡°BOTTEMA¡± which can prove or disprove propositions in an extensive class of geometric and algebraic inequalities involving radicals. Most of the theorems in ¡°Geometric Inequalities¡±¡¡writed by Bottema et al., can be proven efficiently in this way.
