The new research field of tropical geometry has recently led to considerable progress in algebraic geometry and particularly enumerative geometry. With the help of tropical geometry, many algebraic or geometric questions can be reduced to combinatorial problems concerning graphs or polyhedral complexes. However, the structure of these combinatorial problems is involved, which makes the theoretical as well as practical use of these results complicated. Therefore, we would like to develop resp. implement algorithms for several of these problems which are of particular interest. Thus, we do not only want to gain new results in tropical and hence algebraic geometry, but we also want to simplify the application of tropical geometry.
