* Symbolic and symbolic-numeric methods for solving mathematical problems, from any field * Algorithm optimization and performance tuning techniques * Effective use of types and data representations for particular problems or domains * User interfaces for mathematical problem solving Applications of Maple Topics could include, but are not limited to:

* Applications that use Maple in unusual settings or in unusual ways * Applications that push or extend the limit of what Maple can do * Applications that explore critical world problems * Applications that combine Maple with other technology All presentation proposals will be reviewed by the conference organizing committee. If the proposal is accepted, the submitter will be invited to present their work at the conference. After the conference, all presenters and invited speakers will be invited to submit a full paper for inclusion in the conference proceedings. These submissions will undergo peer-review, and the decision about acceptance or rejection lies with the Maple Conference 2020 Program Committeehttps://www.maplesoft.com/mapleconference/Papers-and-Presentations.aspx.

Presentation Proposals Your presentation proposal should be in the form of a title and abstract for your proposed talk. Abstracts should be under one page/400 words in length, and must be in English. If your presentation proposal is accepted, at least one author is expected to attend the conference to present the paper. All presentations are to be given in English.

Papers (optional) After the conference, all presenters and invited speakers will be invited to submit a full paper on the work they presented. These papers will undergo peer-review, and if accepted, will appear in the conference proceedings. Papers should not duplicate work published or submitted for consideration elsewhere. Papers must be in English and should be 6-15 pages in length. Please follow the Springer LNCS conference proceedings author instructionshttps://www.springer.com/gp/computer-science/lncs/conference-proceedings-guidelines.
