[For the entire collection see Zbl 0716.00007.] It is pointed out that labelling irreducible representations of both classical and exceptional Lie groups by means of partitions and using \(S\)-functions allows applications of the Littlewood-Richardson rule to be extended far beyond its original symmetric group context [\textit{D. E. Littlewood} and \textit{A. R. Richardson}, Philos. Trans. R. Soc. Lond., Ser. A 233, 99-141 (1934; Zbl 0009.20203)]. Its implementation in SCHUR [SCHUR Software Associates, Christchurch, New Zealand] leads to the efficient interactive evaluation of a large variety of such things as tensor products and branching rules for Lie groups. Applications to atomic, nuclear and particle physics are mentioned, and a few illustrative examples involving infinite series of \(S\)-functions, skew \(S\)-functions, plethysms and user defined functions are given.
