----------------------------------------------------------------------

The International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation is
the premier conference for research in symbolic computation and
computer algebra. ISSAC 2018 will be the 43rd meeting in the series,
which started in 1966 and has been held annually since 1981. The
conference presents a range of invited speakers, tutorials, poster
sessions, software demonstrations and vendor exhibits with a
centerpiece of contributed research papers.

ISSAC 2018 is held on July 16-19 2018, at the CUNY Graduate Center,
New York, USA.


Important Dates -- extended deadlines
-------------------------------------
Abstract submission: January 29, 2018 (was: January 22, 2018)
Paper submission: February 5, 2018 (was: January 29, 2018)
Notification of acceptance/rejection: April 13, 2018
Camera-ready copy due: May 07, 2018


Invited Speakers

Travel Grants
-------------
A limited number of travel grants will be available for junior
participants who are from US-based institutions or who are US
citizens. Information on how to apply for travel support will
be made available on the conference website.


Submission Instructions
-----------------------
ISSAC 2018 invites the submission of original research contributions
to be considered for publication and presentation at the conference.
Papers should not duplicate work published or submitted for
consideration elsewhere.

Papers must be in English and should not exceed 8 pages in the ACM
conference proceedings style. Note that ACM has recently updated its
style files. See the submission guidelines on the conference website
for further details.

Submissions in other article styles are also accepted, but the final
version must be at most 8 pages when compiled with the ACM style file
(equivalent to about 17 pages of letter size paper, typeset in 12pt
with normal spacing and reasonably large margins). Extended abstracts
are not allowed. Papers may have an appendix that may be read by the
reviewers and PC members at their discretion, but will not be included
in the published version of the paper.

Submission is via EasyChair, at the web site
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=issac2018


Topics
------
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.


Special Issue of Journal of Symbolic Computation
------------------------------------------------
A special issue of Journal of Symbolic Computation will be published
following ISSAC 2018. Guest Editors will be Manuel Kauers, Alexey
Ovchinnikov and Éric Schost. All submitted papers will be refereed
according to the usual JSC refereeing process. The call for papers for
this special issue will give details of the submission process.
