First Call for Papers
- ---------------------
SYNASC 2009

11th International Symposium on
Symbolic and Numeric Algorithms for Scientific Computing
September 26-29, 2009, Timisoara, Romania
http://synasc09.info.uvt.ro/

Aim:
- ---
SYNASC aims to stimulate the interaction between the two scientific communities 
of symbolic and numeric computing, with the purpose of exhibiting interesting 
applications of these areas both in theory and in practice.  The choice of this 
topic is motivated by the belief of the organizers that  the dialogue  between 
the two communities is very necessary in order to make significant progress in  
making the computer a truly intelligent aid for mathematicians and engineers.

Submission:
- -----------
Papers (IEEE conference style), must be submitted electronically through 
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=synasc2009.

We invite submissions in the form of:
    * full research papers, (up to 8 pages).
         Accepted research papers will be presented at the conference
         and will be also published in the proceedings.
    * informal presentations (up to 4 pages).
         Accepted informal presentations will be presented at the
         conference but will not be published in the proceedings.

We also invite proposals for:
    * special sessions
    * satellite workshops

Proposals are invited for special sessions on any topic relevant to the 
conference. Special sessions are intended to stimulate in-depth  discussions in 
special areas and they are fully integrated into the main conference. The 
research papers and the informal presentations submitted and accepted for the 
special sessions follow the same rules as the papers submitted to the regular 
sessions. It is expected that the organizers of the special sessions appoint 
their own chairs and program committee, which will be integrated in the 
conference programme committee and will be supervised by the conference 
programme chair and by the general chair.

Proposals for satellite workshops are also invited. The scientific programme of 
the satellite workshops is entirely organized by the respective workshops. The 
main conference provides the infrastructure (registration, handling the 
finance, room and coffee breaks, etc). Authors contributing to a workshop would 
be required to register for the symposium.

Proposal for tutorials are also invited. Tutorials provide fundamental exposure 
to topics ranging from introductory through intermediate to advanced. The 
number and the duration of the tutorials will be decided by the tutorial chair 
under the supervision of the general chair. Depending on the number and the 
quality of the proposals for tutorials, they may be organized as a SYNASC 
Autumn School.
