******************************************************************************************
First Call for Papers
11TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON CELLULAR AUTOMATA FOR RESEARCH AND
INDUSTRY (ACRI 2014)
Krakow, Poland, September 22-25, 2014
http://acri2014.agh.edu.pl
******************************************************************************************

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. They account often for real phenomena or
solutions of problems, whose high complexity could unlikely be
formalised in different contexts. Furthermore parallelism and locality
features of CA allow a straightforward and extremely easy
parallelisation, therefore an immediate implementation on parallel
computing resources. The aforementioned characteristics of the CA
research resulted in the formation of interdisciplinary research teams.
These teams produce remarkable research results and attract scientists
from different fields. The main goal of the 11th edition of ACRI 2014
Conference (Cellular Automata for Research and Industry) is to offer
both scientists and engineers in academies and industries an opportunity
to express and discuss their views on current trends, challenges, and
state-of-the art solutions to various problems in the fields of arts,
biology, chemistry, communication, cultural heritage, ecology, economy,
geology, engineering, medicine, physics, sociology, traffic control,
etc.

Topics of either theoretical or applied interest about CA and CA-based
models and systems include but are not limited to:
- Algebraic properties and generalization
- Complex systems
- Computational complexity
- Dynamical systems
- Hardware circuits, architectures, systems and applications
- Modeling of biological systems
- Modeling of physical or chemical systems
- Modeling of ecological and environmental systems
- Image Processing and pattern recognition
- Natural Computing
- Quantum Cellular Automata
- Parallelism

SUBMISSIONS:
Authors are invited to submit papers presenting their original and
unpublished research. Papers should not exceed 10 pages and should be
formatted according to the usual LNCS article style
(http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs). Details on the electronic
submission procedure will be provided through the website of the
conference (http://acri2014.agh.edu.pl).

PUBLICATION:
A volume of proceedings will be published by Springer-Verlag in the
Lecture Notes in Computer Science series and will be available by the
time of the conference. After the conference, refereed volumes of
selected proceedings containing extended papers will be organized as
special issues of ISI international journals like Journal of Cellular
Automata.

IMPORTANT DATES:
Paper submission: March 19, 2014
Notification of paper acceptance or rejection: April 22, 2014
Final version of the paper for the proceedings: May 14, 2014
Conference: September 22-25, 2014

CONFERENCE LOCATION:
ACRI2014 which will be held at AGH University of Science and
Technology, Krakow, Poland on September 22-25 2014, is the eleventh in a
series of conferences inaugurated in 1994 in Rende, Italy, and followed
by ACRI 1996 in Milan, Italy, ACRI 1998 in Trieste, Italy, ACRI 2000 in
Karlsruhe, Germany, ACRI 2002 in Geneva, Switzerland, ACRI 2004 in
Amsterdam, The Netherlands, ACRI 2006 in Perpignan, France, ACRI 2008 in
Yokohama, Japan, ACRI 2010 in Ascoli Piceno, Italy and ACRI 2012 in
Santorini, Greece.

AGH University of Science and Technology is one of the leading
technical universities in Poland. The AGH University was established in
1919, serves the science and industry through education, as well as
research and development.

Krakow is the second largest city in Poland, known as "cultural capital
of Poland" and "a city of tradition" and a city of a unique medieval
architecture. Krakow is registered on the UNESCO World Heritage List and
awarded the title of the European Capital of Culture in 2000. Krakow as
such a very popular touristic destination is served by convenient air,
road and rail connections.
