The International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation (ISSAC) is the premier annual conference to
present and discuss new developments and original research results in all areas of symbolic mathematical computation. Planned activities include invited presentations, research papers, poster sessions, tutorial courses, vendor exhibits and software demonstrations.
IMPORTANT DATES
ISSAC 2008 will be held July 20 to 23, 2008 in Hagenberg
near Linz, Austria Deadline for submissions: January 14, 2008 (Midnight [24:00 EST]). Notification of acceptance: March 24, 2008.
CONFERENCE TOPICS
They include, but are not limited to:
Algorithmic Mathematics: Algebraic, symbolic and symbolic-numeric algorithms. Simplification, function manipulation, summation, integration, polynomial / differential
/ difference equations, linear algebra, number theory, group and invariant theory, geometric computing.
Computer Science: Theoretical and practical problems in symbolic computation. Systems, problem solving environments, user interfaces, software, libraries, parallel / distributed computing and programming languages, concrete analysis, benchmarking, theoretical and practical complexity, automatic differentiation, code generation, mathematical data structures and exchange protocols.
Applications: Problem treatments using algebraic, symbolic or symbolic- numeric computation in an essential or a novel way. Engineering, economics and finance, physical and biological
sciences, computer science, logic, mathematics and education.
