Call For Session Proposal

The 4th International Congress on Mathematical Software will consist of several topical sessions. Each session will provide an overview of the challenges, achievements and progress in a subfield of mathematical software research, development and use. The program committee will consist of the session organizers. We solicit session proposals.

You are invited to propose a session if you

  • are active in mathematical software research, development and use,
  • want to serve the research community by nurturing and facilitating mathematical software work in your area, and
  • would like to focus only on the scientific matters in the organization (not on other matters such as administrative, logistic, etc).

How to propose a session

  1. Prepare a session proposal with the following contents.
    • title of the session
    • name(s) of the organizer(s), with contact addresses and emails
    • aim and scope of the session (at most 150 words)
  2. Submit it
    • to the program chair (Hoon Hong)
    • by email
    • at latest by Jan 31 2014.
  3. The decision on the proposal will be made
    • by the program chair, the general chair and the advisory committee
    • within a week of the submission.

How to organize a session

  • Maintain a session web page (a template will be provided).
  • Send a call for abstracts to the potential speakers in the topic area of the session (a template will be provided).
  • Review the submitted abstracts and make decision on their acceptance, as soon as each one arrives.
  • Complete the process by May 15 2014.
  • During the meeting, chair the session.

Format of a session

  • A session will consist of one or more time slots.
  • A time slot will consist of about 5 talks.
  • We encourage that each session begins with one general overview talk (may be given by a session organizer).
