The 28th International Workshop on Cellular Automata and Discrete Complex Systems will take place on October 10-12 at the Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, India

AUTOMATA 2022 is the twenty-eighth workshop in a series of events established in 1995.

These workshops aim to:

Establish and maintain a permanent, international, multidisciplinary forum for the collaboration of researchers in the field of Cellular Automata (CA) and Discrete Complex Systems (DCS).
Provide a platform for presenting and discussing new ideas and results.
Support the development of theory and applications of CA and DCS (e.g. parallel computing, physics, biology, social sciences, and others) as long as fundamental aspects and their relations are concerned.
Identify and study within an inter-and multidisciplinary context, the important fundamental aspects, concepts, notions and problems concerning CA and DCS.

The AUTOMATA series is the official annual event of IFIP WG 1.5, the Working Group 5 (on Cellular Automata and Discrete Complex Systems), of the Technical Committee 1 (on Foundations of Computer Science), of the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP).
