[SMT-LIB] MACIS 2013

[Pascal Fontaine]

Dear all,

We do receive a lot of CFP for many conferences around the world, but 
please consider this Asian conference, which has a track that 
specifically focuses on SMT.

Best,

   Pascal

MACIS 2013 - Fifth International Conference on
Mathematical Aspects of Computer and Information Sciences
Nanning, China, December 11-13, 2013

http://www.mpi-inf.mpg.de/conference/macis2013/


DEADLINE EXTENSION AND SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS

- Submission of papers/extended abstracts: October 12, 2013
- Notification of acceptance or rejection: November 1, 2013
- Conference taking place:                 December 11-13, 2013
- MACIS Forum and Satellite Workshop:      December  9-10, 2013

MACIS is a series of conferences where foundational research on 
theoretical and
practical problems of mathematics for computing and information 
processing may
be presented and discussed. MACIS also addresses experimental and case 
studies,
scientific and engineering computation, design and implementation of 
algorithms
and software systems, and applications of mathematical methods and tools to
outstanding and emerging problems in applied computer and information 
sciences.
Each conference focuses on two or three themes.

The topics for MACIS 2013 fall into the following tracks:

- Constraints and Combinations (Track Chairs: P. Fontaine, U. Waldmann)

   quantifier elimination and decision procedures; (global) optimization;
   differential equations; numeric, symbolic, interval and hybrid solution
   techniques; satisfiability modulo theories; combinations of logics and
   deductive engines; applications, especially in systems analysis and 
formal
   verification

- Data Modeling and Analysis (Track Chairs: M. Moshkov, X. Zhang)

   knowledge discovery; data mining; pattern recognition; complex knowledge
   representation and management; foundations and theories for data analysis
   systems; big data storage, transfer, and processing

- Information Security and Cryptography (Track Chairs: J. Bloemer, D. 
Hutter)

   security models; formal methods for security; cryptographic protocols;
   compositional security; information flow; language-based security; access
   control; database security; anonymity and privacy; encryption 
schemes; digital
   signatures; hash functions; cryptanalysis


MACIS FORUM IN MATHEMATICS, INFORMATICS, AND CULTURE - SATELLITE WORKSHOP

The core conference program will be complemented with a forum in 
mathematics,
informatics, and culture taking place in Nanning during December 9-10, 2013.

A satellite workshop of MACIS 2013 in Logic, Algebra and Computation will be
held at Beihang University, Beijing, China on December 9, 2013.


CONFIRMED FORUM SPEAKER

Tianxin Cai
Professor of Mathematics at Zhejiang University

SUBMISSION

Potential participants of MACIS 2013 are invited to submit extended 
abstracts
(3-4 pages) or full papers describing their work to be presented at the
conference. The submitted extended abstracts and full papers will be 
reviewed by
members of the Program Committee (PC) for soundness and relevance to the
conference. Submission of original research papers is encouraged, while
published material and work in progress will also be considered for 
presentation
at the conference. Electronic submissions are strongly preferred using
EasyChair:

http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=macis2013

Accepted extended abstracts and full papers will be printed for 
distribution at
the conference. Authors of the extended abstracts and full papers 
accepted for
presentation at the conference will be invited to submit their full and/or
revised papers for publication in special issues of Mathematics in Computer
Science (MCS - http://www.cc4cm.org/mcs) by Birkhaeuser/Springer after the
meeting. The submitted papers will be formally reviewed by PC members and
external referees according to the refereeing procedure of MCS.
