Workshop23-CAAA
The 7th Workshop on Cellular Automata Algorithms & Architectures
(CAAA 2017)
CALL FOR PAPERS & PARTICIPATION
As part of The International Conference on High Performance Computing & Simulation (HPCS 2017)
Genoa, Italy
Submission Deadline: April 15, 2017
Submissions could be for full papers, short papers, poster papers, or posters
July 17 – July 21, 2017
SCOPE AND OBJECTIVES
This seventh edition of the International Workshop on Cellular Automata Algorithms & Architectures, henceforth denoted as "Workshop" and planned to be held in the framework of the International Conference on High Performance Computing & Simulation, provides an global forum for reporting on state-of-the-art in computational problems, techniques and solutions related to the implementation of cellular automata models and algorithms onto fine-grain and coarse-grain architectures. The six previous CAAA events were held in Amsterdam (2015), Bologna (2014), Helsinki (2013), Madrid (2012), Istanbul (2011) and Caen (2010).
This CAAA track strives to gather all aspects addressed in the main parts of the HPCS conference, but which lie at the intersection of the two areas. In other words, topics of interest include all aspects of Cellular Automata, but in the context of High Performance Computing and Simulation.
The CAAA Workshop topics of interest include (but are not limited to) the following:
Cellular Automata Models & Algorithms
Local and Global Properties in Cellular Automata Networks
Local and Global Communications at Application Level
Local Neighborhood and Topology Awareness
Routing and Mobile Agents in Cellular Automata
Spatio-Temporal and Collision-based Computing Models
Synchronization and Related Problems
Fine-Grained Parallel Architectures and FPGA
Efficient Architectures and Implementations
Computational Problems in Large-Scale Models
Parallel Environments and Accelerators for Cellular Automata in HPC
Regular Graphs for Massive Interconnection Networks
INSTRUCTIONS FOR PAPER SUBMISSIONS
You are invited to submit original and unpublished research works on above and other topics related to Cellular Automata Algorithms & Architectures. Submitted papers must not have been published or simultaneously submitted elsewhere. For Regular papers, please submit a PDF copy of your full manuscript, not to exceed 8 double-column formatted pages per template, and include up to 6 keywords and an abstract of no more than 400 words. Additional pages will be charged additional fee. Submission should include a cover page with authors' names, affiliation addresses, fax numbers, phone numbers, and all authors email addresses. Please, indicate clearly the corresponding author(s) although all authors are equally responsible for the manuscript. Short papers (up to 4 pages), poster papers and posters (please refer to http://hpcs2017.cisedu.info/1-call-for-papers-and-participation/call-for-posters for posters submission details) will also be considered. Please specify the type of submission you have. Please include page numbers on all preliminary submissions to make it easier for reviewers to provide helpful comments.
Submit a PDF copy of your full manuscript to the workshop paper submission site at http://cisedu.us/cis/hpcs/17/users/upload.jsp. In the form you fill out, please indicate that the submission is for CAAA 2017 in the Notes/Comments field of the uploading form. If the submission is for a poster paper or short paper, indicate that as well on the manuscript and in the form's Comments field. Acknowledgement will be sent within 48 hours of submission.
Only PDF files will be accepted, uploaded to the submission link above. Each paper will receive a minimum of three reviews. Papers will be selected based on their originality, relevance, significance, technical clarity and presentation, language, and references. Submission implies the willingness of at least one of the authors to register and present the paper, if accepted. At least one of the authors of each accepted paper will have to register and attend the HPCS 2017 conference to present the paper at the workshop.
PROCEEDINGS
Accepted papers will be published in the Conference proceedings. Instructions for final manuscript format and requirements will be posted on the HPCS 2017 Conference web site. It is our intent to have the proceedings formally published in hard and soft copies and be available at the time of the conference. The proceedings is projected to be included in the IEEE or ACM Digital Library and indexed in all major indexing services accordingly.
SPECIAL ISSUE
Plans are underway to have the best papers, in extended version, selected for possible publication in a journal as special issue. Detailed information will soon be announced and will be made available on the conference website.
If you have any questions about paper submission or the workshop, please contact the workshop organizers.
