Call for papers: 13th Brainstorming Week on Membrane Computing

Post date: Dec 3, 2014 8:53:45 PM

Call for Participation

Goal: Following previous editions, the goal of this meeting is to bring together researchers interested in Membrane Computing (theory and applications), in order to exchange ideas, problems, solutions, and to work together in a friendly environment. Only invited talks and short and provocative presentations will be scheduled during the first days. The rest of the meeting will be mainly devoted to joint work. Those interested in having such presentations should inform the organizers (ariscosn 'at' us.es) some days before the meeting.

The participants are strongly encouraged to circulate open problems and research proposals by posting them to the mail list openproblems-bwmc 'at' listas.us.es. Instructions on how to subscribe/unsubscribe to this mail list and how to access the messages can be found here and here.

Dates: 2nd February, 2015 (Monday) - 6th February, 2015 (Friday)
