                      FIRST ANNOUNCEMENT
       IMACS Conference on Applications of Computer Algebra
                       May, 16-20, 1995
                   University of New Mexico
                     Albuquerque, NM, USA

Conference Rationale:

In the past several years there has been a dramatic increase in the use
of computer algebra in engineering, science, and education. The
computer-algebra research community has made significant progress in
developing applicable algorithms, particularly in the areas of ordinary
and partial differential equations and systems of algebraic equations.
There are now textbooks for many engineering, science and mathematics
courses that use a computer algebra approach.  This international
conference will bring together these diverse groups for an exchange
of their latest ideas.

Topics included:
     o  Solutions of ordinary and partial differential equations,
        including symmetry methods.
     o  The use of symbolic techniques for numerical computations.
     o  Applications of Grobner basis algorithms.
     o  The use of quantifier elimination algorithms to solve problems
        in engineering.
     o  The use of computer algebra in education, including precollege,
        college, and graduate education.
     o  Application of computer algebra to problems in engineering
        and science.

The conference will be run in the standard IMACS format where
individuals are invited to organize a special session.  Requests
for proposals for special session will also be issued.
