EXTENDED DEADLINE : MARCH 10, 2003
Call for papers of the international conference DM-CS:
DISCRETE MODELS FOR COMPLEX SYSTEMS
Lyon, June 16-19 2003
For a few years, an increasing number of researchers has been
interested in the use of discrete models to study complex systems
in many fields: computer science, mathematics, physics, biology,
economics, social science... Many different problems were unified
thanks to these studies, and a new field of research appeared.
The aim of this conference is to put together researchers working
on various aspects of the discrete modelling of complex systems and
to give the opportunity of fruitful exchanges.
The first issue of this conference on discrete models took place in
July 2001 in Paris and received 80 participants. Its proceedings are
available at:
http://dmtcs.loria.fr/proceedings/dmAAind.html
The conference will consist in invited talks, contributed presentations
selected after a refereeing procedure, and poster sessions. The proceedings
will be published in DMTCS (Discrete Mathematics and Theoretical Computer
Science, see http://dmtcs.loria.fr/), a copy of the proceedings will be
provided at the conference..
DM-CS is organized by the Complex Systems Institute and will take place
in Lyon (France) on June 16-19 at the Ecole Normale Supérieure de Lyon.
All researchers working on the field of discrete modelling of complex
systems are encouraged to submit and/or to participate.
