============================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS DCM 2015: 11th International Workshop on Developments in Computational Models October 28, 2015, Cali - Colombia http://dcm-workshop.org.uk/2015/ A satellite event of ICTAC 2015 - http://www.ictac2015.co ============================================================== == IMPORTANT DATES - Submission Deadline for Extended Abstracts (5 pages): August 3 - Notification: 13 September - Pre-proceedings version due: 5 October - Workshop: 28 October - Submission Deadline for EPTCS Proceedings: 7 December == AIM Several new models of computation have emerged in the last few years, and many developments of traditional computational models have been proposed with the aim of taking into account the new demands of computer systems users and the new capabilities of computation engines. A new computational model, or a new feature in a traditional one, usually is reflected in a new family of programming languages, and new paradigms of software development. DCM 2015 is the eleventh in a series of international workshops focusing on new computational models. The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers who are currently developing new computational models or new features for traditional computational models, in order to foster their interaction, to provide a forum for presenting new ideas and work in progress, and to enable newcomers to learn about current activities in this area. DCM 2015 will be a one-day satellite event of ICTAC 2015, the Twelfth International Colloquium on Theoretical Aspects of Computing (http://www.ictac2015.co) == TOPICS OF INTEREST Topics of interest include all abstract models of computation and their properties, and their applications to the development of programming languages and systems: - functional calculi: lambda-calculus, rho-calculus, term and graph rewriting; - quantum computation, including implementations and formal methods in quantum protocols; - probabilistic computation and verification in modeling situations; - chemical, biological and bio-inspired computation, including spatial models, self-assembly, growth models; - models of concurrency, including the treatment of mobility, trust, and security; - infinitary models of computation; - information-theoretic ideas in computing. == INVITED SPEAKERS - Mauricio Ayala Rincón, Universidade de Brasilia (Brazil). - Gilles Dowek, INRIA (France). == SUBMISSIONS Submit your paper in PDF format via the conference EasyChair submission page: https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dcm2015 Submissions should be an abstract of at most 5 pages, written in English. Please follow the EPTCS style: http://style.eptcs.org/ Simultaneous submission to journals, conferences or other workshops is not permitted. A submission may contain an appendix, but reading the appendix should not be necessary to assess its merits. After the workshop authors are invited to submit a full paper of their presentation. Accepted contributions will appear in an issue of EPTCS (Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science). == PROGRAM COMMITTEE: - Mario Benevides (Brazil) - Luís Caires (Portugal) - Ugo Dal Lago (Italy) - Nachum Dershowitz (Israel) - Jérôme Feret (France) - Marcelo Frias (Argentina) - Russ Harmer (France) - Ivan Lanese (Italy) - Radu Mardare (Denmark) - Elvira Mayordomo (Spain) - César A.
