SYNASC 2026 - Second Call for Papers 28th International Symposium on Symbolic and Numeric Algorithms for Scientific Computing
September 14-17, 2026, Timisoara, Romania https://synasc.ro/2026/ === Aim === SYNASC aims to stimulate interaction among multiple communities focusing on defining, optimising, and executing complex algorithms in several application areas. The focus of the conference ranges from symbolic and numeric computation to formal methods applied to programming, artificial intelligence, distributed computing, and computing theory. The interplay between these areas, in fact, is essential in the current scenario where the economy and society demand for the development of complex, data-intensive, trustworthy, and high-performance computational systems. === Important Dates === May 15, 2026 (AoE) : Paper submission for main tracks June 15, 2026 (AoE) : Paper submission for workshops and special sessions July 25, 2025 (AoE) : Notification of acceptance September 14-17, 2026 : Symposium November 16, 2026 : Camera-ready papers for post-proceedings === Tracks === * Symbolic Computation * Numerical Computing * Logic and Programming * Distributed Computing * Artificial Intelligence * Theory of Computing === Invited Speakers === * Vasile Berinde, Technical University of Cuj-Napoca, Romania * Temur Kutsia, Johannes Kepler University, Linz, Austria * Markus Roggenbach, University of Swansea, UK * Grigore Rosu, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA * Nicu Sebe, University of Trento, Italy === Submission === All papers must contain original research results and should not be submitted or published elsewhere. There are three categories of submissions: * Regular papers describing fully completed research results (up to 8 pages in IEEE two-column paper style). * System descriptions and experimental papers describing software prototypes, results of simulations, or experimental data analysis, with a link to the reported results (up to 8 pages in IEEE two-column paper style). * Short papers describing ongoing work, preliminary results, and/or research challenges of PhD students (up to 4 pages in IEEE two-column paper style). The papers should be submitted electronically through https://easychair.org/my/conference?conf=synasc2026 Papers accepted and presented at the symposium will be published as proceedings by Conference Publishing Service (CPS) and submitted for indexing in ISI Web of Science, DBLP, and SCOPUS. For all accepted papers, at least one author is required to register for the conference and present the paper. === Special Sessions === * Special Session on Neuro-symbolic Artificial Intelligence (NSAI) * Special Session for PhD Students (PhD) See https://synasc.ro/2026/special-sessions/ for details === Workshops === * Workshop on Agents for Complex Systems (ACSys) * Workshop on Iterative Algorithms for Approximating Fixed Points of Various Contractive-type Operators (IAFP) * Workshop on Natural Computing and Applications (NCA) * Workshop on Serious Games in Well-being, Environment, Digital Heritage and Other Applications (SegWEDA) * Workshop on Remote Sensing, Computer Vision, and AI for a Sustainable Future (WSAI) See https://synasc.ro/2026/workshops/ for details. === Tutorials === TBA === Program Chairs === * Mircea Marin, West University of Timisoara, Romania * Peter Csaba Ölveczky, University of Oslo, Norway === Steering Committee === * Anca Mirela Andreica, Babes-Bolyai University of Cluj-Napoca, Romania * James Davenport, University of Bath, UK * Tetsuo Ida, University of Tsukuba, Japan * Tudor Jebelean, Johannes Kepler University, Austria * Laura Kovacs, Technical University of Vienna, Austria * Dorel Lucanu, "Alexandru Ioan Cuza" University of Iasi, Romania * Viorel Negru, West University of Timisoara, Romania * Dana Petcu, West University of Timisoara, Romania * Alin Stefanescu, University of Bucharest, Romania * Stephen Watt, University of Waterloo, Canada * Daniela Zaharie, West University of Timisoara, Romania ----------- SYNASC 2026 e-mail: [email protected]
