[CONFERENCE POSTER]
- Conference Objectives
Complex systems are pervasive in many fields of science and we encounter
them everyday
and everywhere in our life. Their examples include financial markets,
highway
transportation networks, telecommunication networks, human economies,
social networks,
immunological systems, ant colonies, ect. The key feature of a complex
system is that it
is composed of large number of interconnected and interacting entities
exhibiting much
richer dynamical properties on global scale than they could be inferred
from the
properties and behaviours of its individual entities. Complex systems
are studied in many
areas of natural sciences, social sciences, engineering and mathematical
sciences. The
integral part of these interdisciplinary studies forms discrete
modeling. These models
can be seen as the simplest laboratories to study phenomena exhibited by
complex systems
like self-organization processes, pattern formation, cooperation,
adaptation,
competition, attractors, or multi-scaling phenomena. The objective of
this conference is
to bring researchers working on discrete modeling of complex systems and
to provide a
forum for exchange of ideas and presentation of results of their research.
- Call For Papers
Researchers and scientists working in the area of discrete modeling of
complex systems
are invited to submit abstracts on their research to be presented at the
conference. Of
particular interest are approaches: cellular automata, lattice gas
cellular automata,
agent based simulation models, individually based simulation models,
networks. Both
theoretical and applied research is of interest. Accepted abstracts will
be schedules as
talks or posters.
- Post Conference Proceedings
All participants of the Conference a invited to submit a paper for
publication in the in
special issues of the Acta Physica Polonica B. All submissions will be
peer-reviewed. We use EasyChair conference system to manage paper submission.
In order to submit paper, you must login to EasyChair website.
