1995 EAST COAST COMPUTER ALGEBRA DAY
Second Announcement and Call for Participation
The 1995 East Coast Computer Algebra day will be held in
Smith Hall on the University of Delaware campus in Newark, DE
on Saturday, April 8, 1995.
The purpose of this meeting is to stimulate interest in and enhance
understanding of the technical aspects of computer algebra by
providing a way for those in the region who are active or interested
in becoming more active in computer algebra to meet with each other in
an inexpensive and easily accessible way. This informal meeting will
provide ample time for unstructured interaction. The breadth of
computer algebra will be covered. The three invited speakers will
address topics in algorithms, software, and applications. Members of
the community are invited to submit abstracts for poster presentation
or software demonstrations. The deadline for poster or demo abstracts
is March 8, 1995. Graduate students are particularly encouraged to
contribute posters or demos. Thanks to tentatively approved NSF
support, contributors will be eligible for travel support up to
a maximum of $400. Preference will be given to graduate students,
recent graduates, and their advisors.
