Call for Papers

9TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON CELLULAR AUTOMATA
FOR RESEARCH AND INDUSTRY (ACRI 2010)

Ascoli Piceno (Italy), September 21-24, 2010

***********************************************************************

New Deadline for Paper submission: March 30, 2010

***********************************************************************

Cellular Automata (CA) present a very powerful approach to the study
of spatio-temporal systems where complex phenomena build up out of
many simple local interactions. The main goal of the 9th edition of ACRI
2010 Conference (Cellular Automata for Research and Industry) is to
offer both scientists and innovation managers in academies and
industries an opportunity to express and discuss their views on current
and future trends, challenges, and state-of-the art solutions to various
problems in the fields of arts, biology, chemistry, communication,
cultural heritage, ecology, economy, engineering, physics, social
science, traffic control, etc.

Topics of either theoretical or applied interest about CA and CA-based
models and systems include issues in parallelism, computational
complexity, dynamical and complex systems, innovative and
challenging models for real phenomena. Papers on languages,
software platforms and hardware components based on CA are
welcome. In order to emphasize the application power of CA and the
increasing interest about these advanced computational models in the
production world, papers and also demos will be welcome.
