Workshops Proposal
Call for workshops
UCNC has a long standing tradition of hosting workshops in areas
related to unconventional computing and/or more specific to a
pertinent topic.
Strict deadline for workshop proposal submission is March 19, 2012.
Typically, but not exclusive, topics can be chosen from: natural computing including quantum, cellular, molecular, neural, DNA and membrane computing, as well as evolutionary paradigms; chaos and dynamical systems based computing; massive parallel computation, collective intelligence, relativistic, optical, spatial computing, amorphous computing, physarum computing, collision-based computing, proposals for computations going beyond the Turing model.
Workshops are expected take place during the conference. There are no special fees for the workshop, registration for the conference includes access to all organized workshops. Each workshop will receive:
For each workshop, the program as well as the preparation of proceedings is responsibility of the workshop organizers.
Workshop proposals should indicate:
Proposal (pdf or plain text, no more than 3 pages) should be sent to one of the program committee co-chairs:

Workshops are expected take place during the conference. There are no special fees for the workshop, registration for the conference includes access to all organized workshops. Each workshop will receive:
- a lecture room,
- free printing of proceedings,
- one mission (covers travel+living expenses+registration for one person)
- advertisement along with the conference.
For each workshop, the program as well as the preparation of proceedings is responsibility of the workshop organizers.
Workshop proposals should indicate:
- title and/or acronym,
- contact information of the workshop organizers,
- scope and topics,
- proposed format and agenda (for example, talks, demo sessions, tutorials, posters, etc.),
- estimate audience size (15-40),
- potential invited speakers,
- procedures for selecting papers and participants (committee?),
- plans for dissemination, if any (for example, special issues of journals),
- duration (which may vary from one day to two days),
- past history of the workshop,
- special technical needs,
- anything else that you feel is important!
Proposal (pdf or plain text, no more than 3 pages) should be sent to one of the program committee co-chairs:
