Workshop Theme :
=============

Techniques based on metaheuristics and nature-inspired paradigms can
provide efficient solutions to a wide variety of problems. Moreover,
parallel and distributed metaheuristics can be used to provide more
powerful problem solving environments in a variety of fields, ranging,
for example, from finance to bio- and health-informatics. This
workshop seeks to provide an opportunity for researchers to explore
the connection between metaheuristics and the development of solutions
to problems that arise in operations research, parallel computing,
telecommunications, bioinformatics, and many others. 

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
* Nature-inspired methods (e.g. ant colonies, GAs, cellular automata,
DNA and molecular computing, local search, etc) for problem solving
environments.
* Parallel and distributed metaheuristics techniques (algorithms,
technologies and tools).
* Applications combining traditional parallel and distributed
computing and optimization techniques as well as theoretical issues
(convergence, complexity, etc).
* Other algorithms and applications relating the above mentioned
research areas.

Prospective authors of high quality research contributions are invited
to submit an electronic copy of their manuscript not exceeding 8
two-column pages including figures and references in the traditional
IEEE format used in IPDPS. Please, use Postscript or PDF when
possible. In your email, please indicate paper title, author(s), and
the corresponding author.

A selected group of papers from the workshop will be invited to
submit extended versions of their papers to a special issue of an
international scholarly journal. Further announcements will be made
during the workshop.

Cellular Automata (CA) present a very powerful approach to the study
of spatio-temporal systems where complex phenomena build up out of
many simple local interactions. The main goal of the 9th edition of ACRI
2010 Conference (Cellular Automata for Research and Industry) is to
offer both scientists and innovation managers in academies and
industries an opportunity to express and discuss their views on current
and future trends, challenges, and state-of-the art solutions to various
problems in the fields of arts, biology, chemistry, communication,
cultural heritage, ecology, economy, engineering, physics, social
science, traffic control, etc.

Topics of either theoretical or applied interest about CA and CA-based
models and systems include issues in parallelism, computational
complexity, dynamical and complex systems, innovative and
challenging models for real phenomena. Papers on languages,
software platforms and hardware components based on CA are
welcome. In order to emphasize the application power of CA and the
increasing interest about these advanced computational models in the
production world, papers and also demos will be welcome.

AIMS

Cellular Automata are a well-known formal model for complex systems that is used in many scientific fields and applications. Synchronicity is one of the main features of Cellular Automata evolutions. Indeed, all cells of common Cellular Automata are updated simultaneously at each discrete time step.

Recent trends consider the modelling of asynchronous systems based on local interactions. The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers dealing with the theme of the asyncronicity inside Cellular Automata in order to foster their interaction and to provide a forum for presenting new ideas and works in progress on the subject.

Topics of either theoretical or applied interest include, but are not limited to
the following aspects of Asynchronous Cellular Automata

- dynamics
- complexity issues
- computational issues
- emergent properties
- models of parallelism and distributed systems
- models of phenomena from biology, chemistry, physics, engineering and other fields


SUBMISSION AND PUBLICATION

Authors are invited to submit papers according to two contribution categories -- full and short papers -- meant to provide a differentiation of the papers in terms of their length, depth and/or
maturity. Papers must comply with the Springer-Verlag format (see http://www.springer.com/computer/lncs) and the maximum length of 5 and 10 pages for short and full contributions, respectively. Details on the electronic submission procedure will be provided through the website of the ACRI conference (http://www.acri2010.disco.unimib.it/).

Accepted papers will be published by Springer-Verlag in a volume of the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series. This volume will be available by the time of the workshop.

It is also planned that selected papers will be considered for publication in a Special issue of Natural Computing. They will contain refereed extended versions of selected papers presented at ACA workshop.
