*---------------------------------------------------------------* Call for Proposals for Workshops ISSAC 2011 June 8-11, 2011 *---------------------------------------------------------------* We solicit proposals for satellite workshops to be held in conjunction with ISSAC 2011. For the first time, ISSAC will participate in the Federated Computing Research Conference (FCRC). FCRC occurs once every four years, and is the world's largest computing research conference. FCRC consists of a collection of conferences that agree to share the same conference facility. To learn more, see http://acm.org/fcrc/ . The FCRC week in 2011 will run June 4-11 The ACM is able to offer space for workshops or small conferences at no additional charge. Participants are responsible for paying a modest FCRC registration fee (approx. 50 USD for the entire FCRC week) and a ``per diem'' fee to cover refreshments (approx. 80 USD per day). These fees are the same regardless of how many events one attends, i.e., there is no penalty to register for one conference and attend a different workshop. ISSAC will take place at the end of the FCRC week, and space for workshops is available for us starting the day before, June 7. Opportunities abound for making connections with other fields of computer science. Conferences that have confirmed their participation include the * ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing (STOC), * ACM Symposium on Parallelism in Algorithms and Architectures (SPAA), * ACM Conference on Programming Language Design and Implementation (PLDI), * CRA-W Career Mentoring Workshop. Potential ideas for workshops that take advantage of the presence of these related conferences might then be Complexity in Computer Algebra, Parallel Symbolic Computation, Programming Languages for Computer Algebra, or Mentoring Women in Computer Algebra. We also welcome proposals for other topics. Holding your workshop at an event with international presence might heighten participation. Please email your proposal to General Chair Eric Schost at esch...@uwo.ca. There is no hard deadline, but because space is limited, we encourage you to submit by December 14, 2009. We will make decisions on a ``first come, first served'' basis and may close submissions before December 1st. For questions concerning the Federated Computing Research Conference, any organizational details, current list of participating conferences, or current availability of space, please contact Local Arrangements Chair Emil Volcheck at volch...@acm.org. -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel-unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
