AUTOMATA 2019 is the twenty-fifth workshop in a series of events established in 1995. The workshop aims to establish and maintain a permanent, international, multidisciplinary forum for the collaboration of researchers in the field of cellular automata (CA) and discrete complex systems (DCS), to support the development of theory and applications of CA and DCS (e.g. parallel computing, physics, biology, social sciences, and others) as long as fundamental aspects and their relations are concerned, and to identify and study, within an inter- and multidisciplinary context, the important fundamental aspects, concepts, notions and problems concerning CA and DCS. AUTOMATA 2019 is an official event of the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP). Accepted full papers will appear in the proceedings published by Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science.
Topics: Dynamic, topological, ergodic and algebraic aspects of cellular automata and discrete complex systems, algorithmic and complexity issues, emergent properties, symbolic dynamics, formal languages, tilings, models of parallelism and distributed systems, synchronous versus asynchronous models, phenomenological descriptions and scientific modelling, applications of CA and DCS.
