Third International Conference on

Scuola Internazionale Superiore di Studi Avanzati
International School for Advanced Studies
CALL FOR PAPERS
Interest in Cellular Automata is growing both in academy and industry, due to their challenging theoretical aspects as well as to their useful practical applications, and they are in use in several fields, including the simulation of different kinds of dynamical systems (physical, biological, socio-economical), machine vision, parallel computation and the theoretical analysis of complex dynamics. Moreover, research on Cellular Automata often involves cooperation between experts in different scientific disciplines, opening new perspectives to the cross fertilization of different kinds of knowledge.
After the successful ACRI Conferences in Cosenza (1994) and Milano (1996), the third edition of ACRI aims at representing an international forum for researchers active in the Cellular Automata field, and also for those researchers who are wishing to evaluate the possibility to apply them in their own fields, or are interested in exploring this paradigm. ACRI '98 will be held at SISSA / ISAS (Scuola Internazionale Superiore di Studi Avanzati - International School for Advanced Studies). SISSA is part of a scientific campus located near Miramare Castle, about 6 km from downtown Trieste and enjoys its rather picturesque setting on the hills facing the Adriatic sea.
CONFERENCE TOPICS
Papers are welcome on all the aspects related to Cellular Automata
research, either theoretical or applicative, including:
Cellular Automata theory
Cellular Automata models
Applications of Cellular Automata
Cellular Automata-like models
Cellular Automata & artificial life
Cellular Automata & artificial intelligence
Languages and software environments for Cellular Automata
Parallel processing by Cellular Automata
Epistemological aspects of Cellular Automata

L'angolo di Gipo
INDOVINELLO
DIVE DEL CINEMA
Siete sempre ben sviluppate,
soprattuto col seno,
armoniche ed assolutamente maggiorate.
A volte sembrate non avere limiti
e, come la Taylor, siete sempre.... somme!
Soluzione dell'indovinello del numero precedente:
BOSCAIOLI
Avete certe facce, voi,
tipi spigolosi,
e anche un po' altezzosi.
Non fate mai piano, portando certi tronchi voluminosi.
Soluzione: I solidi
