[Caml-list] CICM 2012: Call for participation

CICM 2012 - Conference on Intelligent Computer Mathematics
July 9-13, 2012 at Jacobs University, Bremen, Germany

http://www.informatik.uni-bremen.de/cicm2012/

Call for participation
----------------------------------------------------------------

As computers and communications technology advance, greater
opportunities arise for intelligent mathematical computation. While
computer algebra, automated deduction, mathematical publishing and
novel user interfaces individually have long and successful histories,
we are now seeing increasing opportunities for synergy among these
areas. The Conference on Intelligent Computer Mathematics offers a
venue for discussing these areas and their synergy.

The conference is organized by Serge Autexier and Michael Kohlhase at
Jacobs University in Bremen and consist of five tracks:

Artificial Intelligence and Symbolic Computation (AISC)
Co-Chairs: John A. Campbell, Jacques Carette
Calculemus
Chair: Gabriel Dos Reis
Digital Mathematical Libraries (DML)
Chair: Petr Sojka
Mathematical Knowledge Management (MKM)
Chair: Makarius Wenzel
Systems and Projects
Chair: Volker Sorge

The overall programme is organized by the General Program Chair
Johan Jeuring.

Invited talks will be given by:

Yannis Haralambous, Département Informatique, Télécom Bretagne
Conor McBride, Department of Computer and Information Sciences,
University of Strathclyde
Cezar Ionescu, Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research

----------------------------------------------------------------
Programme
----------------------------------------------------------------

The global programme of the conference, tracks, and workshops
are available via:
