[Please post - apologies for multiple copies.] CALL FOR SHORT AND WORK-IN-PROGRESS PAPERS ================================================ SCSS 2014 Symbolic Computation in Software Science 6th International Symposium Gammarth, La Marsa, Tunisia, December 7-11, 2014 http://www.easychair.org/smart-program/SCSS2014/ ================================================ Scope -------- The purpose of SCSS 2014 is to promote research on theoretical and practical aspects of symbolic computation in software science. The symposium provides a forum for active dialog between researchers from several fields of computer algebra, algebraic geometry, algorithmic combinatorics, computational logic, and software analysis and verification. The topics of the symposium include, but are not limited to the following: - automated reasoning - algorithm (program) synthesis and/or verification - formal methods for the analysis of network security - termination analysis and complexity analysis of algorithms (programs) - extraction of specifications from algorithms (programs) - theorem proving methods and techniques - proof carrying code - generation of inductive assertion for algorithm (programs) - algorithm (program) transformations - formalization and computerization of knowledge (maths, medicine, economy, etc.) - component-based programming - computational origami - query languages (in particular for XML documents) - semantic web and cloud computing Submission ---------- Researchers and practitioners are invited to submit short papers, reports on interesting work in progress or system descriptions. They need not be original. Concurrent submission to another conference or a journal is allowed. The papers are limited in length to 5 pages in the EasyChair format.
