Description:
The methods of Scientific Computing play an important role in research and engineering applications in the field of the natural and engineering sciences.

The importance of computer algebra methods and computer algebra systems for scientific computing has increased considerably in recent times. During the last decade, a new generation of general-purpose computer algebra systems such as Mathematica, Maple, MuPAD and Axiom have been developed, which enable the user to solve the following three important tasks within a uniform framework of the same system:

symbolic manipulations numerical computations visualization

A further development of such systems, including their adaptation to parallel environments, puts them at the forefront in scientific computing and enables the practical solution of many complex applied problems in the domains of natural sciences and engineering knowledge.

Topics for CASC unites many important questions and methods of Scientific Computing and the application of computer algebra, like

numerical simulation using computer algebra systems parallel symbolic-numeric computations symbolic-numeric interfaces symplectic integration construction of approximate solutions of differential equations and dynamical systems symbolic-numeric methods in celestial mechanics and general relativity algebraic methods for nonlinear equations and inequalities computer algebra methods in pure mathematics computational group theory applications to the theory of error-correcting codes problem-solving environments for partial differential equations algorithmic and complexity considerations in computer algebra.

The workshop is intended to provide a forum for researchers and engineers in the fields of mathematics, informatics, numerical analysis, etc. An important goal of the workshop is to unite all these specialists for the purpose of an efficient solution of many current questions and problems in advanced Scientific Computing.
