ISSAC, the International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation, is an annual gathering of the Symbolic Mathematical Computation community. ISSAC 2003 is scheduled for August 3 - 6, 2003 at Drexel University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.

Poster Sessions

Planned conference activities include invited presentations, research and survey papers, poster sessions, tutorial courses, vendor exhibits, and software demonstrations. Proceedings, as well as abstracts of all posters, will be distributed at the conference.

The Poster Sessions are an ideal venue for presenting recent research results or ongoing research projects that might not yet be complete, but whose preliminary results are already interesting nonetheless. Posters describing computer algebra systems and applications are also especially welcome. To encourage poster submissions of good quality, a best poster prize, consisting of a certificate, will be awarded. Posters will be judged based on content and presentation.

Abstracts of final versions of accepted posters will appear in the SIGSAM Bulletin.

Topics

The conference topics include, but are not limited to:

• Algorithmic mathematics. Algebraic, symbolic and symbolic-numeric algorithms. Simplification, function manipulation, equations, summation, integration, ODE/PDE, linear algebra, number theory, group and 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 for symbolic computation, concrete analysis, benchmarking, theoretical and practical complexity of computer algebra algorithms, 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, statistics, education.

Submission Guidelines

Authors are invited to submit electronically an abstract of no more than 900 words to the poster committee chair describing the contents of the poster. Plain TeX or LaTeX is preferred, but plain text is also acceptable.
