Topics include, but are not limited to, computer algebra in the sciences, engineering, medicine, pure and applied mathematics, cryptology, education, and computer science.

The 24th International Conference on Applications of Computer Algebra (ACA, http://math.unm.edu/aca.html) will take place in Santiago de Compostela on June 18-22, 2018.

Call for Sessions -----------------

The ACA conferences are organized as a series of Special Sessions. All interested researchers can propose a Special Session by sending an e-mail to the Program Chair (fbotana(at)uvigo.es). The Scientific Committee (i.e. the ACA Working Group) will then decide on the acceptance of the proposed session. Accepted sessions will be immediately announced on the conference site.

A proposal for a Special Session has to include:

title of the Special Session,     short abstract describing the Special Session,     contact information of the organizers.
