The 5th International Workshop on Satisfiability Checking and Symbolic Computation
was held (virtually, because of Covid-19) on July 5th, as part of IJCAR 2020 in Paris, France.
The 5th Workshop on Satisfiability Checking and Symbolic Computation (SC^2) is part of "Paris Nord Summer of LoVe 2020", a joint event on LOgic and VErification at UniversiteParis 13, made of Petri Nets 2020, IJCAR 2020, FSCD 2020, and over 20 satellite events.

Symbolic Computation is concerned with the efficient algorithmic determination of exact solutions to complicated mathematical problems. Satisfiability Checking has recently started to tackle similar problems but with different algorithmic and technological solutions.
The two communities share many central interests, but researchers from these two communities rarely interact. Also, the lack of common or compatible interfaces for tools is an obstacle to their fruitful combination. Bridges between the communities in the form of common platforms and road-maps are necessary to initiate an exchange, and to support and direct their interaction. The aim of this workshop is to provide an opportunity to discuss, share knowledge and experience across both communities.
Submitting to the Workshop
A copy of the Call for Papers is available on EasyChair.
The workshop is open for submission and participation to everyone interested in the topics, whether or not they were members or associates of the (now finished) H2020 FETOPEN CSA project "SC-Square".
The topics of interest include but are not limited to:
- Satisfiability Checking for Symbolic Computation
- Symbolic Computation for Satisfiability Checking
- Applications relying on both Symbolic Computation and Satisfiability Checking
- Combination of Symbolic Computation and Satisfiability Checking tools
- Decision procedures and their embedding into SMT solvers and computer algebra systems
Submission guidelines
Submissions should be in English, formatted in Springer LNCS style and
submitted via EasyChair using this link: EasyChair
We invite three types of submissions:
- NP: Normal papers describing research not published or submitted elsewhere (with a limit of 15 pages).
- EA: Extended abstracts may be position papers, description of research prospects, challenges, projects, ongoing works, or applications relevant to SC-square (with a limit of 8 pages).
- PO: Posters
To receive the appropriate level of peer review, please declare the
category of your submission by prefixing the title on the Easychair form
with "NP", "EA" or "PO" accordingly.
For consistency, all submissions must use the LNCS style. The style files are

LNCS style files (ZIP format).
We plan to publish the proceedings of the workshop digital form, hosted with
CEUR-WS. Authors may opt out of this,
should they prefer to publish the material elsewhere.
People from industry and business are warmly invited to submit papers to describe their problems, challenges, goals, and expectations for the SC-square community.
