AFCA'14
2nd International Workshop on Applications and Fundamentals of Cellular Automata
To be held in conjunction with CANDAR'14, Shizuoka, Japan, December 10-12, 2014.
This workshop is launched in honor of Professor Morita's retirement from Hiroshima university in March 2013. The main goal of this workshop is to provide a timely forum for the discussion of new ideas in the field of application and theory of cellular automata and unconventional computing.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to
Applicational aspects of cellular automata and cellular automata based systems, such as modeling of biological, physical or chemical systems, traffic modeling, agent-based systems, implementations of cellular automata,
Theoretical aspects of cellular automata, such as basic properties of cellular automata, cellular automata based algorithms, models of unconventional computing, natural computing, complex systems, artificial life.
Regular paper: 5-7 pages
Poster paper: 3-4 pages
