First Announcement and Call for Papers
The 9th International Workshop in Computer Algebra in Scientific
 Computing, CASC 2006, will be held in the city of Chisinau, Moldova, in
 September 11-15, 2006.
  
 The methods of Scientific Computing play an important role in research and
 engineering applications in the natural and the engineering sciences. The
 significance and impact of computer algebra methods and computer algebra
 systems for scientific computing has increased considerably in recent
 times. Nowadays, such general-purpose computer algebra systems as Maple,
 Magma, Mathematica, MuPAD, Singular, CoCoA and others enable their users
 to solve the following three important tasks within a uniform framework:
   (a) symbolic manipulation
   (b) numerical computation
   (c) visualization
 The ongoing development of such systems, including their integration and
 adaptation to modern software environments, puts them to the forefront in
 scientific computing and enables the practical solution of many complex
 applied problems in the domains of natural sciences and engineering.
  
 The topics addressed in the workshop cover all the basic areas of
 scientific computing as they benefit from the application of computer
 algebra methods and software:
  
   1. exact and approximate computation
   2. numerical simulation using computer algebra systems
   3. parallel symbolic-numeric computation
   4. problem-solving environments
   5. Internet accessible symbolic and numeric computation
   6. symbolic-numeric methods for differential, differential-algebraic,
        and difference equations
   7. algebraic methods in geometric modeling
   8. algebraic methods for nonlinear polynomial equations and inequalities
   9. symbolic and numerical computation in systems engineering and modeling
 10. algorithmic and complexity considerations in computer algebra
 11. computer algebra in industry
 12. computer algebra in nanotechnology
 13. solving problems in the natural sciences
 14. automatic reasoning in algebra and geometry
  
 The workshop is intended to provide a forum for researchers and engineers
 in the fields of mathematics, computer science, numerical analysis, and
 industry, to interact and exchange ideas. An important goal of the
 workshop is to bring together all these specialists for the purpose of
 fostering progress on current questions and problems in advanced
 scientific computing.
