The Arctic University of Norway (UiT) in Tromsø

The 8th International Workshop on Satisfiability Checking and Symbolic Computation was held on July 28, 2023, at The Arctic University of Norway (UiT) in Tromsø. It will be collocated with ISSAC 2023.

The proceedings of the workshop have been published as Volume 3455 of CEUR-WS.org. JHD has written a BiBTeX file here.

Located over 200 miles north of the Arctic Circle, Tromsø is an urban island, surrounded by beautiful nature. Life in the High North is shaped by wild nature, contrasting light and weather conditions, geographic distances and multiculturalism.

Surrounded by mountains and fjords on all sides, Tromsø is home to approximately 75,000 inhabitants, making it the second-most populated city north of the Arctic Circle. With everything a person could “need”—shopping malls, festivals, marathons, cultural venues, tourist attractions and a few movie theaters — Tromsø feels more like a small metropolitan city than a town.

The Workshop 8 Team

UiT is the northernmost university in the world, with 18,000 students and 64 days of midnight sun.

Workshop Scope

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.

Keynote Speaker:

  • Haniel Barbosa (Universidade Federal de Minas Gerais, Brasil)
  • Andre Platzer (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, DE & Carnegie Mellon University, US)

    • Program

    The workshop will take place in the Scandic Ishavshotel.

    Submissions and Participation

    The workshop series has emerged from an H2020 FETOPEN CSA project "SC-Square", which ran from 2016 to 2018. It has been continued aiming at building bridges bewteen Satisfiability Checking and Symbolic Computation. It is open for submission and participation to everyone interested in the topics, whether or not they were members or associates of the original project.

    The topics of interest include but are not limited to:

    Submission guidelines

    Submission implies a committment that, in case of acceptance, at least one of the authors attends and presents at the workshop. We are now accepting submissions in the following categories:

    All submissions must be in English. Full papers and extended abstracts must and use the new CEUR-ART format. All submissions should be entered to the EasyChair system before the submission deadline. Please declare the category of your submission by prefixing the title on the EasyChair form with "FULL", "EA", "PRESENTATION", or "POSTER", respectively.

    Proceedings

    We have published the proceedings of the workshop as CEUR-WS proceedings covering full papers and extended abstracts.

    Furthermore, there will be post-proceedings in an issue of the Springer journal Mathematics in Computer Science dedicated to the workshop. Authors of all four categories are eligible for submission of a corresponding journal article. Journal versions of full papers require at least 30% new material compared to the version originally accepted. All journal submissions will be thoroughly peer-reviewed according to the standards of the journal.

    Important Dates

    All deadlines are by the end of the day anywhere on earth.
