Dear all,
If of interest, please see below call for papers for the 2014 Student Conference on Complexity Science in Brighton and hosted (this year) by the University of Southampton Institute for Complexity Science DTC.
Whilst the conference as a whole is focussed on complexity science, we have a session dedicated to planning, transport and mobility ("Planning and Industry"). That being said, the conference is designed to be interdisciplinary and, given transport is a canonical example of a complex system, would welcome contributions across all sessions themes. Details and links are below.
Many thanks

----------
We are pleased to announce that the Call for Papers is now open for the Student Conference on Complexity Science (19-22 August 2014, Brighton, UK). The deadline for submissions is 14th April at 12 p.m. (UCT).
The Student Conference on Complexity Science (SCCS) is the largest UK conference for early-career researchers working within the interdisciplinary framework of Complex Systems, with a particular focus on computational modelling, simulation and network analysis. Confirmed keynote speakers include prof. Mark Newman (University of Michigan, USA), prof. Eörs Szathmáry (Eötvös Loránd University, Hungary) and prof. Nigel Gilbert (University of Surrey, UK). This year SCCS will consist of five hands-on workshops as well as parallel sessions. The topics will oscillate around ten general themes listed below. Please note that abstracts not falling directly into one of the general themes may still be considered if they are relevant to a specific session.
Theory of Complexity Science
Self-organization, nonlinear dynamics and chaos, mathematical and simulation methodology
Network Science
Technological networks, spatial networks, infrastructure, ecology, social networks, Internet
Planning and Industry
Critical infrastructures, urban planning, mobility, transport, sustainability
Earth System Complexity
Climate change, ocean, atmosphere, ice and solid earth dynamics
Biological Complexity
Systems biology, ecology, ecosystem services, medicine
Evolution and the Origin of Life
Evolutionary systems, origin of life theory, major evolutionary transitions, generative and developmental systems, artificial life
Artificial Intelligence
Swarm intelligence, embodied cognition, robotics, neuroscience
Social Systems
Linguistics, demography, psychology, health, past societies
Economics and Finance
Markets and stability, trade, public policy, game theory
Engineering and Physical Sciences
Quantum dynamics, statistical mechanics, optimisation, turbulence, computational chemistry, nanotechnology, energy
