=========================== FIRST ANNOUNCE: Apologies for multiple post =========================== AUTOMATA 2008 Future of Cellular Automata Theory and Applications June 12-14 2008 Bristol, United Kingdom We are inviting you to participate in the international workshop on cellular automata. The unique workshop will highlight hot topics of cellular automata theory and applications, an interdisciplinary field, whose general goal might be summarised as the quest for theoretical constructs, computational solutions and practical implementations of novel and powerful models of the locally-connected regular discrete worlds. The workshop will bring together work that focuses on advanced theoretical constructions, experimental prototypes and genuine implementations of cellular-automata models, computing devices and paradigms. AUTOMATA-2008 is 14th workshop in a series of AUTOMATA workshops established in 1995 by members of the Working Group 1.5 (Cellular Automata and Machines) subordinated to Technical Committee 1 (Foundations of Computer Science) of the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP). The main goal of AUTOMATA-2008 workshops is to maintain a permanent, international and multidisciplinary forum for the collaboration of researchers in the fields of Cellular Automata (CA). The workshop will revolve around all important theoretical and applied aspects of cellular automata and discrete complex systems research. Topics will include cellular automata as tiling systems, dynamical systems, models of parallelism, computational models, algebraic structures, formal language processors, structural & computational complexity, framework for investigating discrete complex systems, models of phenomena from biology, chemistry, physics, engineering and other fields All participants are encouraged to submit a paper for publication in the AUTOMATA-2008 proceedings. All submissions will be peer-reviewed. Timeline: Submission of papers: April 5, 2008 Registration ends: May 25, 2008 Conference starts: June 12, 2008 Organizers: Andrew Adamatzky (Bristol, UK) Ramon Alonso-Sanz (Bristol, UK) Genaro Martinez (Bristol, UK) Advisory Committee: Anna Lawniczak (Guelph, Canada) Kenichi Morita (Hiroshima, Japan) Thomas Worsch (Karlsruhe, Germany) Contact: genaro.martinez@uwe.ac.uk Sponsored by UWE and EPSRC.
