Call for Posters ISSAC 2008 International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation RISC, Hagenberg, Austria, July 20-23, 2008 http://www.risc.uni-linz.ac.at/issac2008/ ISSAC, the International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation, is the premier annual gathering of the Symbolic Mathematical Computation community to present and discuss new developments and original research results in all areas of symbolic mathematical computation. The poster sessions at ISSAC are ideal avenues for presenting recent research results or ongoing research projects that might not yet be complete, but whose preliminary results are already interesting nonetheless. Authors are invited to submit extended abstracts of posters in the PDF format. All posters will be reviewed by the Poster Committee with input from experts in the relevant areas. Posters will be evaluated based on content, novelty, originality, contribution, value to the community, and presentation. Abstracts of accepted Posters will be distributed in printed form at the conference venue and will be printed in an upcoming issue of the ACM SIGSAM Communications in Computer Algebra. Details on submission of contributions may be found by visiting the submission page at www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=issac2008posters. Authors are expected to present their work at the symposium. IMPORTANT DATES Deadline to submit extended abstract (.pdf): May 1, 2008 Notification of Acceptance: June 1, 2008 Deadline to submit (.tex) updated abstracts: June 15, 2008 CONFERENCE TOPICS Posters can be on any topic mentioned in the Call for Papers of ISSAC 2008 which include but are not restricted to the following areas: Algorithmic Mathematics: Algebraic, Symbolic and Symbolic-Numeric Algorithms Computer Science: Theoretical and practical problems in Symbolic Computation Applications: Problem treatments using Algorithmic, Symbolic, or Symbolic- Numeric Algorithms in novel or essential ways, including applications to Education, The Sciences, Engineering, or Business. Reports on computer implementations are welcome.
