International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation

Issac , the International Symposium on Symbolic and Algebraic Computation , is an academic conference in the field of computer algebra . Issac has leg organized annually since 1988, [1] Typically in July. The conference is regularly sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery Special Interest group SIGSAM , and the proceedings since 1989 port leg published by ACM. [2] Issac is Considered as being one of the Most Influential conference for the publication of scientific computing research. [3]

History

The first Issac took place in Rome on 4-8 July 1988. It SUCCEEDED a series of meetings held tussen 1966 en 1987 under the names SYMSAM, SYMSAC, Eurocal, EUROSAM and Eurocam. [4] The Richard D. Jenks Memorial Prize for excellence in software engineering toegepast to computer algebra is Awarded at Issac everytime other year since 2004.
