First Call for Papers

--------------------------
C A L C U L E M U S   2008
--------------------------

July 30 -- August 1, 2008

University of Birmingham, UK

http://events.cs.bham.ac.uk/calculemus08/

General
-------
Calculemus is a series of conferences dedicated to the
integration of computer algebra systems (CAS) and systems
for mechanised reasoning, the interactive theorem provers
or proof assistants (PA) and the automated theorem provers
(ATP).

Currently, symbolic computation is divided into several
(more or less) independent branches: traditional ones (e.g.,
computer algebra and mechanised reasoning) as well as newly
emerging ones (on user interfaces, knowledge management,
theory exploration, etc.)  The main concern of the Calculemus
community is to bring these developments together in order
to facilitate the theory, design, and implementation of
integrated systems for computer mathematics that will
routinely be used by mathematicians, computer scientists
and engineers in their every day business.

For the upcoming Calculemus meeting, which will be held
jointly with AISC 2008 and MKM 2008 (confederated in the
Conferences on Intelligent Computer Mathematics, CICM 2008)
in Birmingham, UK, we seek original research papers on the
subjects described above.

Scope
-----
The scope of Calculemus covers all aspects of the
interplay of mechanised reasoning and computer algebra,
including cross-fertilisation between those two research
areas, as well as the development of integrated systems
that transcend both computer algebra and theorem proving.
Potential areas of interest are:

* Theorem proving in computer algebra (CAS)
* Computer algebra in theorem proving (PA and ATP)
* Case studies and applications that both involve computer
  algebra and mechanised reasoning
* Representation of mathematics in computer algebra
* Theory, design and implementation of interdisciplinary
  systems for computer mathematics
* Infrastructure for mathematical services
* Theory exploration techniques
