Dear Academic Community,
In March 2007 Yuri Matiyasevich will be 60. In addition to his outstanding scientific achievements, Yuri Matiyasevich was the editor of several issues of the journal "Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov POMI" ("Notes of Mathematical Seminars of St.Petersburg Department of V.A.Steklov Institute of Mathematics"). He remains an active author of our journal until now.
We decided to devote the next issue of the journal to Yuri Matiyasevich. Please find the call for papers below. We will be grateful if you distribute this call for papers among your colleagues.
The deadline is set to May 10, 2007. ******
If you are unable to meet the deadline ****** but strongly wish to contribute, please communicate a more appropriate date and an abstract to any of the editors at the addresses listed below. We have a tight schedule for the publication process (see below).
Faithfully yours, Anatol Slissenko and Maxim Vsemirnov

FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT Summer School - "Algebra and Combinatorics"
Dear researchers,
The research group CELC is organizing a summer school on Algebra and Combinatorics from 25 to 29 June 2007.
The "Summer School on
Algebra and Combinatorics" will consist of courses of five one-hour lectures, supplemented by seminars and/or posters and informal talks.
The school is mostly addressed to graduate students or researchers interested in algebraic aspects of combinatorics.
Please, feel free to forward this announcement to anybody that could be interested.
Best regards, the organizers: C. André, A. Correia, M. M. Torres SARA '07: The Seventh International Symposium on Abstraction, Reformulation and Approximation
Whistler, Canada, July 18-21, 2007 (organised
in cooperation with AAAI and co-located with AAAI'07)
It has been recognised since the inception of Artificial Intelligence that abstractions, problem reformulations and approximations (AR&A) are central to human common-sense reasoning and problem solving and to the ability of systems to reason effectively
in complex domains. AR&A techniques have been used in a variety of problem-solving settings, including (but not limited to):
The primary use of AR&A techniques in such settings has been to overcome computational intractability by decreasing the combinatorial costs associated with searching large spaces. In addition, AR&A techniques are also useful for knowledge acquisition and explanation generation in complex domains.
The aim of the symposium is to provide a forum for intensive interaction
among researchers in all areas of Artificial Intelligence and Computer Science with an interest in the different aspects of AR&A techniques. The diverse backgrounds of participants of previous symposia has led to a rich and lively exchange of ideas, allowed the comparison of goals, techniques and paradigms, and helped identify important research issues and engineering hurdles. We expect that the upcoming symposium will include an equally diverse group of participants.
