=============== CALL FOR PAPERS ===============


               The International Workshop on
         Computing with Spatio-Temporal Dynamics
             http://arn.local.frs.riken.jp/CSD10/

          21st - 25th June 2010, Tokyo, Japan


You are invited to submit research papers to the first international
workshop on Computing with Spatio-Temporal Dynamics 2010 (CSD10),
a satellite of the ninth international conference on Unconventional
Computation 2010 (UC10) to be held in The University of Tokyo, Japan.


AIMS & SCOPE

Nature employs spatio-temporal dynamics for computation and
exhibits intriguing capabilities in overcoming computationally
difficult challenges. Unconventional computing research so far
has been largely inspired by information processing in nature
at all scales (physical, chemical, and biological). The workshop
aims to facilitate exchanges between explorers in a wide spectrum
of novel computing systems, including wet-lab experimentation,
software modelling, and hardware implementation, who are
struggling to find those "hidden gems" of natural computing.
We welcome young scientists (PhD students, postdocs) who are
eager to interact with each other beyond disciplines.
