Program




Conference Site




The ACA series of conferences is devoted to promoting the applications and development of Computer Algebra and Symbolic Computation. We bring together developers of computer algebra systems and packages with researchers and users including scientists, engineers, educators.

Topics include computer algebra and symbolic computation in engineering, the sciences, medicine, pure and applied mathematics, education, communication and computer science.

Academic Sessions

Call for Special Sessions

This conference is structured as a series of Special Sessions (see Format for more details). If you wish to organize a Special Session at ACA 2011, send your proposal to the Program Chairs, which should includes:

  • the title of the Special Session,

  • the contact information of the organizers,

  • a short abstract stating the purpose of the Session.

You will receive a quick response to your Session proposal once it has been evaluated by the Program Chairs (in collaboration with the ACAWG). Accepted Special Sessions will be listed here. Organizers of Special Sessions are expected to maintain a website and are responsible for soliciting talks and contributions to their Session. Sessions are expected to contain at least 4 talks. The scientific quality of a Special Session is the sole responsibility of the session organizers.

Deadline for Session Proposals: March 15, 2011. (Session Organizers are encouraged to organize their sessions as soon as possible. Also, financial supports will be on the first-come-first-serve manner.)

Current Sessions

It is our intention to at least have the following sessions:

1. Computer Algebra in Education

2. Interaction Between Computer Algebra and Interval Computations

3. Elimination Theory and Applications

4. Differential and integral symbolic-numeric algorithms

5. Computer Algebra for Dynamical Systems and Celestial Mechanics

6. Symbolic and Numeric Computation

7. Algebraic and Algorithmic Aspects of Differential and Integral Operators

8. High-Performance Computer Algebra
