Hi,
The First
International Workshop on Guided Self-Organisation (GSO-2008) will be
held 24-27 November 2008, in Sydney,
Australia:
The balance between design and self-organisation is the
main theme of GSO-2008. The following topics are of special interest:
- information-driven self-organisation (IDSO),
- systems biology,
- complex
systems and networks,
- computational neuroscience and
neuroinformatics;
- applications of GSO to cooperative and modular
robotics,
- applications of GSO to sensor networks and energy
grids.
The workshop is open to researchers in self-organising
systems, though for practical considerations the total number of participants
will be limited to 50 at the maximum. If you are interested in attending and/or
presenting, please send me an email by 31 October 2008, with a title and an
abstract (1 page) of your possible contribution. Following the Workshop, a
formal call for papers will be issued for a special journal
issue.
