**********************************************************************

Artificial Intelligence and Symbolic Computation are two views and
approaches for automating problem solving, in particular mathematical
problem solving. The two approaches are based on heuristics and on
mathematical algorithmics, respectively. Artificial Intelligence can
be applied to Symbolic Computation and Symbolic Computation can be
applied to Artificial Intelligence. Hence, a wealth of challenges,
ideas, theoretical insights and results, methods and algorithms arise
in the interaction of the two fields and research communities.
Advanced tools of software technology and system design are needed and
a broad spectrum of applications is possible by the combined problem
solving power of the two fields.

Hence, the conference is in the center of interest and interaction for
various research communities:

* Artificial Intelligence * Logic
* Symbolic Computation * Software Technology
* Computer Algebra * Semantic Web Technology
* Automated Reasoning * Mathematical Knowledge Management
* Formal mathematics * Computer-based Math Teaching & Didactics
* Machine Learning * Computer-Supported Publishing
* Automated Discovery * Language and System Design

Topics
======

Topics of particular interest of the conference include:

* AI in Symbolic Mathematical Computing
* Computer Algebra Systems and Automated Theorem Provers
* Symmetries in AI problems
* Engineering, Industrial and Operations Research Applications
* Foundations and Complexity of Symbolic Computation
* Mathematical Modeling of Multi-Agent Systems
* Implementations of Symbolic Computation Systems
* Programming Languages for Symbolic Computation
* Symbolic Computations for Expert Systems and Machine Learning
* Symbolic Computation and Ontologies
* Logic and Symbolic Computing
* Implementation and Performance Issues
* Intelligent Interfaces
* Symbolic Techniques for Document Analysis

Papers on other topics with links to the above research fields and
topics will also be welcomed for consideration.

Proceedings
===========

The proceedings of the conference will be published as a volume in the
series Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence (LNAI) by
Springer-Verlag. Accepted papers will have to be prepared in LaTeX and
formatted according to the requirements of the Springer's LNAI series
(the corresponding style files can be downloaded from
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html and are the same for
LNCS and LNAI). In addition to the formal proceedings published by
Springer, we intend to make online versions of the published papers
available from the conference website.


Submission
==========

Theoretical and applied research papers on all topics within the scope
of the conference are invited. Submitted papers (in English) must not
exceed 15 pages in length (in the LNCS style). The title page should
contain the title, author(s) with affiliation(s), e-mail address(es),
listing of keywords and abstract plus the topics from the above list
to which the paper is related. The program committee (PC) will subject
all submitted papers to a peer review. Theoretical papers will be
judged on their originality and contribution to their field, and
applied papers on the importance and originality of the application.
Results must be original and have not been published elsewhere.

The web page for electronic submission is at:

http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=aisc20100

Best Paper Awards
=================

Every submission automatically competes for the Best Paper Award.
Papers which have been mainly developed by (PhD) students can be
marked as student papers upon submission to also compete for the Best
Student Paper Award.
