Final Call for Papers

SYNASC 2018

20th International Symposium on

Symbolic and Numeric Algorithms for Scientific Computing

September 20-23, 2018, Timisoara, Romania

http://synasc.ro/2018

============================================================

=== Aim ===

SYNASC aims to stimulate the interaction between the two scientific
communities

of symbolic and numeric computing and to exhibit interesting
applications of the

areas both in theory and in practice. The choice of the topic is
motivated by

the belief of the organizers that the dialogue between the two
communities is

very necessary for accelerating the progress in making the computer a truly

intelligent aid for mathematicians and engineers.

In this context we invite for:

* research paper submissions

* tutorial proposals

=== Important Dates ===

24 June 2018 : Paper submission for main tracks (strict deadline)

24 June 2018 : Paper submission for workshops

15 July 2018 : Notification of acceptance

01 September 2018 : Registration

01 September 2018 : Revised papers according to the reviews

20-23 September 2018 : Symposium

30 November 2018 : Final papers for post-proceedings

=== Invited Speakers ===

Olivier Bournez, Ecole Politechnique, France

Tetsuo Ida, University of Tsukuba, Japan

Dorel Lucanu, University Alexandru Ioan Cuza, Iasi, Romania

Edwin Lughofer, Johannes Kepler University, Linz, Austria

David Monniaux, University of Grenoble, France

Andrei Voronkov, University of Manchester, UK

=== Research Papers ===

Submitted research papers must contain original research results not
submitted

and not published elsewhere.

There are four categories of submissions:

* Regular papers describing fully completed research results (up to
8 pages

in the two-columns paper style).

* System descriptions and experimental papers describing implementation

results of experimental data, with a link to the reported results (up to 4

pages in the two-columns paper style).

* Work in progress papers, describing ongoing work and/or preliminary

results (up to 4 pages in the two-columns paper style).

* Posters, describing ongoing work and research challenges of PhD
students

(up to 2 pages in the two-columns paper style).

Both the abstract and the full paper should be submitted electronically
through

http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=synasc2018.

Research papers that are accepted and presented at the symposium will be

collected as post-proceedings published by Conference Publishing Service

(CPS) (included in IEEE Xplore) and will be submitted for indexing in
ISI Web

of Science, DBLP, SCOPUS.

Extended versions of the selected papers published in post-proceedings
will be

considered to be published as special issues in international journals
(e.g. Soft

Computing Journal, Scalable Computing: Practice and Experience etc.)
