> A workshop named Modelling of Complex Systems by Cellular Automata 2006
> (MCSCA 2006) is organized within the scope of the International
> Conference on Computational Science (ICCS 2006), University of Reading,
> UK, May 28-31, 2006

> The main goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers working
> with complex systems within diverse scientific fields as biology,
> physics, mathematics, engineering, economics, and many others. The main
> focus of the modelling complex systems will be on the Cellular Automata
> computational approach. Complex systems are proven to be a powerful
> theoretical framework that helps us to capture the essence of many real
> systems where other approaches and methods failed. Cellular Automata
> enable us to define and to work with complex systems effectively and
> easily. This workshop is open to other fields related to complex systems
> and/or Cellular Automata as well.
>
> The main issue of this workshop lies in the heart of the ICCS conference
> goal, i.e. it is designed to hit the community, which pioneers
> computational methods in a wide range of scientific fields. Our personal
> experience is that such contacts of researches from completely diverse
> fields could lead to a mutual cross-fertilization of complex systems
> involving many disciplines and could stimulate ongoing researches.
>
> Systems exhibiting complex behaviour have been identified in the
> following fields:
>
> . Biomedicine and Biology
> . Sociology and Psychology
> . Physics
> . Mathematics
> . Computer Science
> . Economics and Econophysics
> . Urban planning, etc.
>
> and many other fields not mentioned here but which could be applied to
> submit.
>
> Submission Guidelines
> Email the paper -- having maximum of 8 pages -- as an attachment (in PS
> or PDF format) to one of the workshop's Program Chair Dr. Jiri Kroc
> (kroc@c-mail.cz), Prof. Dr. Stefania Bandini (bandini@disco.unimib.it),
> or Dr. Tomoaki Suzudo (tsuzudo@abox2.so-net.ne.jp) or upload it to the
> conference or the workshop web-page. Authors could submit papers
> directly to the workshop using ICCS's paper submission engine. When
> registering to submit a paper at
> http://www.iccs-meeting.org/iccs2006/papers/ authors are offered a
> choice of main track, or any of the accepted workshops to submit their
> paper to. All papers will be reviewed and the accepted papers will be
> published in Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS). The
> submitted paper must be camera-ready and formatted according to the
> rules of LNCS (for formatting information see Information for LNCS
> Authors). Please keep strictly author instructions provided at the
> conference web page. Submission implies the willingness of at least one
> of the authors to register and present the paper. A selection of the
> best papers for the conference will be published in a special issue of
> an international journal.
