----------------------------------------------------------------- ISSAC 2013 International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation Boston, USA, June 26-29, 2013 SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS http://www.issac-conference.org/2013 PAPER SUBMISSION DEADLINE: Monday, January 14, 2013 ----------------------------------------------------------------- The International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation is the premier conference for research in symbolic computation and computer algebra. ISSAC 2013 is the 38th meeting in the series. The conference traditionally presents a range of invited speakers, tutorials, poster sessions and software demonstrations with a centre- piece of contributed research papers. ISSAC 2013 will be hosted by Northeastern University in Boston, USA. ISSAC 2013 invites the submission of original research contributions to be considered for publication and presentation at the conference. All areas of computer algebra and symbolic mathematical computation are of interest. These include, but are not limited to: Algorithmic aspects: * Exact and symbolic linear, polynomial and differential algebra. * Symbolic-numeric, homotopy, perturbation and series methods. * Computational algebraic geometry, group theory and number theory. * Computer arithmetic. * Summation, recurrence equations, integration, solution of ODEs & PDEs. * Symbolic methods in other areas of pure and applied mathematics. * Complexity of algebraic algorithms and algebraic complexity Software aspects: * Design of symbolic computation packages and systems. * Language design and type systems for symbolic computation. * Data representation. * Considerations for modern hardware. * Algorithm implementation and performance tuning. * Mathematical user interfaces. Application aspects: * Applications that stretch the current limits of computer algebra algorithms or systems, use computer algebra in new areas or new ways, or apply it in situations with broad impact. Submission Instructions ----------------------- Papers must present original research and not duplicate work published or submitted for consideration elsewhere. Papers must be in English and should not exceed 8 pages in the ACM sig-alternate.cls style, found at http://www.acm.org/sigs/publications/proceedings-templates (submissions may be made in article style, with a limit of 18 pages). Papers may have an appendix that may be read by the reviewers and PC members at their discretion. Final papers must be complete and self-contained within the 8-page limit, and extended abstracts are not allowed. At least one author of each accepted paper must register for the conference and present the paper. Submission is via EasyChair, at the web site https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=issac2013 Important Dates: ---------------- Paper submission: Monday, January 14, 2013 Acceptance notification: Monday, March 18, 2013 Final copy due: Wed, April 17, 2013 Conference Organization ----------------------- General Chairs: Michael Monagan, Simon Fraser University Gene Cooperman, Northeastern University Program Committee Chair: Mark Giesbrecht, University of Waterloo, Canada Program committee: Hirokazu Anai (Fujitsu Laboratories, Japan) Xavier Dahan (Kyushu University, Japan) James Davenport (University of Bath, UK) Jean-Guillaume Dumas (Universite Joseph Fourier, France) Joachim von zur Gathen (B-IT/Universitat Bonn, Germany) Mark van Hoeij (Florida State University, USA) Erich Kaltofen (North Carolina State University, USA) Manuel Kauers (RISC, Linz, Austria) Anton Leykin (Georgia Tech, USA) Steve Linton (University of St. Andrews, UK) Elizabeth Mansfield (University of Kent, UK) Tomas Recio (Universidad de Cantabria, Spain) Bruno Salvy (INRIA, France) Hans Schoenemann (Universitat Kaiserslautern, Germany) Eric Schost (Western University, Canada) Allan Steel (University of Sydney, Australia) Barry Trager (IBM Research, USA) Lihong Zhi (Academia Sinica, Beijing, China) Paul Zimmermann (INRIA, Nancy, France) Proceedings Editor: Manuel Kauers (RISC, Linz, Austria) Local Arrangement Chair: Gene Cooperman (Northeastern University, USA) Tutorial Chair: David Saunders (University of Delaware, USA) Software Presentations Chair: Joris van der Hoeven (Ecole Polytechnique, France) Poster Chair: Alin Bostan (INRIA Saclay Ile-de-France, France) Treasurer: Daniel S.
