Workshop on Complex Systems as Computing Models (WCSCM2011)

November 9-10, 2011
Centro de Ciencias de la Complejidad, UNAM
Mexico City

(in collaboration with LCCOMP, LABORES, and ICUC)

Deadline for submissions: August 1, 2011


The "Workshop on Complex Systems as Computing Models" is an
international meeting focusing in the results of complex systems,
non-linear media, and dynamical systems as models of computation.

The workshop aims to bring together researchers who are currently 
developing new models based in the manipulation and control of
complex systems to perform computation and contributing to the 
understanding of the concept of computation itself. Examples of
this paradigm are reaction-diffusion computers, cellular automata
(such as the game of Life and rule 110), DNA-computers, physics of
computation, bio-molecular computing, quantum computing, cellular
neural networks, competing patterns computing, tiling computing,
origami computing, unconventional computing, and natural inspired
computation.

The goal is to foster interaction and provide a forum for presenting
new ideas and work in progress to enable researchers in the field
and related fields to learn about current and future activities of
the community in this promising area in development.

WCSCM2011 will be a meeting with presentations both in Spanish and
English with submissions also accepted both in Spanish and English
(with preference in Spanish).
