[Om-announce] [ISSAC-ANNOUNCE] ISSAC 2016: First Call for Software Presentations

[Albert Heinle]

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

ISSAC 2016
Call for Software Presentations

International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation
Wilfrid Laurier University, Waterloo, Ontario, Canada, July 20-22 2016.
http://www.issac-conference.org/2016/

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

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 symbolic and algebraic
computation.

Software developers are invited to present new software for solving
problems in symbolic and algebraic computation at ISSAC 2016.
Presenters will be given 15 minutes to demonstrate their
software to participants in a special session for software
presentations. There will be 5 additional minutes between
presentations for setup.

Please submit an extended abstract in PDF format describing your
software and what you will present at ISSAC to Roman Pearce
by email at

   software2016 at issac-symposium.org

Please include in the subject heading ISSAC 2016 Software Presentation.
Please include a valid URL or contact address for obtaining
the software packages and documentation.  The extended abstracts should 
be at most 4 pages when prepared using the CCA style files available from: 

   http://www.sigsam.org/cca/

Abstracts will be evaluated based on content, novelty, originality,
importance and the potential value of the software to the
community. Please identify in your extended abstract what is new
in your proposed ISSAC 2016 software presentation. If you are
also submitting a related paper at ISSAC 2016, please identify,
in your email, the differences between the two submissions.
You may also present your software as a poster.

Extended abstracts of accepted software presentations will be printed 
in an issue of the ACM SIGSAM Communications in Computer Algebra.
