SUMMARY:24th International Workshop on Cellular Automata and Discrete Compl
 ex Systems
DESCRIPTION:Bringing together scholars and students from different fields, 
 the 24th Annual International Workshop on Cellular Automata (CAs) and Discr
 ete Complex Systems (DCSs) AUTOMATA 2018 will convene June 20-22. This edit
 ion will take place in Ghent, Belgium and is organized by the Research Unit
  Knowledge-based Systems of the Department of Data Analysis and Mathematica
 l Modelling, of Ghent University.\n\nCatalysed by the growing data availabi
 lity and the ever rising computing power, the advents of CAs and DCSs are b
 ecoming increasingly appreciated in many fields of computer science, and th
 e environmental, physical and biological sciences. This follows from their 
 intrinsic simplicity while nonetheless allowing the description of complex 
 environmental, physical and biological processes, as opposed to more establ
 ished modelling paradigms. For these reasons, they are used extensively in 
 population biology, geography, materials science, and so on. It is a dynami
 c field in both theory and applications.\n\nThe purpose of this conference 
 is to highlight the major advances in the field and the development of new 
 tools, to support the development of theory and applications of CA and DCS 
 and to identify and study within an inter- and multidisciplinary context, t
 he important fundamental aspects, concepts, notions and problems concerning
  CA and DCS.\n\nRecent versions of the workshop took place in Milan, Italy 
 (2017), Zurich, Switzerland (2016), Turku, Finland (2015) and Himeji, Japan
  (2014). The AUTOMATA series is the official annual event of IFIP WG 1.5 th
 e Working Group 5 (on Cellular Automata and Discrete Complex Systems), of t
 he Technical Committee 1 (on Foundations of Computer Science), of the Inter
 national Federation of Information Processing.
