CALL FOR PAPERS - NCMA 2011 3rd International Workshop on Non-Classical Models of Automata and Applications July 18 - 19, 2010. Milano, Italy http://www.informatik.uni-giessen.de/ncma2011/ ______________________________________________________________________________ Researchers are invited to submit papers concerning original contributions on non-classical models of automata and applications and related subjects for NCMA 2011. Many non-classical automata models are natural objects of theoretical computer science. They are studied from different points of view in various areas, both as theoretical concepts and as formal models for applications. The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers working on different aspects of different variants of non-classical automata models in order to exchange and develop novel ideas. A deeper and interdisciplinary coverage of this particular area may gain new insights and substantial progress. Topics of NCMA 2011 include, but are not limited to: -- Bio-inspired Automata -- Cellular Automata -- Restarting Automata, Forgetting Automata -- Automata with Additional Resources -- Automata Networks, Cooperation, and Communication -- Quantum Automata -- Other Formal Models Inspired by: -- Linguistics -- Bio-Computing -- Text Processing -- Document Engineering -- Self-Assembling In all these settings: -- Application -- Expressive Capability -- Descriptional Complexity -- Universality, Self-Reproduction -- Decision Problems and their Complexity -- Algebraic Properties The 3rd International workshop NCMA 2011 will take place in Milano, Italy, immediately before DLT 2011 which also will be held in Milano from July 19 (afternoon). NCMA 2011 is partially supported by the University of Milan, Dipartimento di Scienze dell'informazione, and by Dipartimento di Informatica e Comunicazione. The first workshop was held in Wroclaw, Poland, while the second edition took place in Jena, Germany. IMPORTANT DATES Date for submission: Thursday, May 12th, 2011 (extended deadline) Notification of acceptance or rejection: tba. Final copy for the proceedings: Sunday, June 19th, 2011. Workshop: July 18 - 19, 2011. SUBMISSIONS Papers presenting original contributions on non-classical models of automata and applications and related subjects are being sought. Authors are invited to submit papers of no more than 12 pages in OCG-style (http://www.informatik.uni-giessen.de/ncma2011/page1/assets/ocg.sty) in electronic format (PostScript or PDF). Proofs omitted due to space constraints must be put into an appendix to be read by the program committee members at their discretion. Simultaneous submission to other conferences or workshops with published proceedings is not allowed. All submissions will be reviewed by at least three referees. The proceedings volume is expected to be published by the Oesterreichischen Computer Gesellschaft in its book@ocg.at series and will be available at the workshop. Selected papers will be published in a special journal issue (Fundamenta Informaticae, for the previous two editions of the workshop). The submissions are handled by the EasyChair conference management system.
