Dear Colleagues,

Due to several requests the deadline for submissions to MCU'15 is extended,
please find the final call for papers below.

************************************************************************
7th International conference Machines, Computations and Universality
(MCU’15)

Famagusta, North-Cyprus, 9-11 September 2015

FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS - EXTENDED DEADLINE FOR SUBMISSIONS: 26 March 2015

The International conference MCU series traces its roots back to the mid
90's, and has always been concerned with gaining a deeper
understanding of computation and universality through the study of models of
general purpose computation. The MCU conference series was initiated in
Paris in 1995. Following editions were held in Metz in 1998, in Chisinau in
2001, in St. Petersburg in 2004, in Orleans in 2007, and in Zurich in 2013.

SCOPE

The scope of the conference topics includes, but is not limited to,
computation in the setting of various discrete models (Turing
machines, register machines, cellular automata, tile assembly systems,
rewriting systems, molecular computing models, neural models...) and
analog and hybrid models (BSS machines, infinite time cellular automata,
real machines, quantum computing...) and the meaning and
implantation of universality in these contexts. Particular emphasis is given
towards search for frontiers between decidability and
undecidability in the various models, search for the simplest universal
models, computational complexity of predicting the evolution
of computations in the various models... Parallel computing models and their
connections to decidability, complexity and universality.

* Analog computation
* Automata theory
* Cellular automata
* Classical computability and degree structures
* Computability theoretic aspects of programs
* Computable analysis and real computation
* Computable structures and models

* DNA computing, self-assembly and tiling
* Dynamical systems and computational models
* Emerging and non-standard models of computation
* Finite model theory
* Generalized recursion theory
* Higher type computability
* Hypercomputational models
* Infinite time Turing machines
* Membrane computing
* Molecular computation
* Morphogenesis and developmental biology
* Multi-agent systems

IMPORTANT DATES

Submission Deadline:                           26 March 2015
Notification of authors:                         27 May 2015
Deadline for final version:                     20 June 2015

SUBMISSIONS

Authors of accepted papers are expected to present their work at the
conference. Submitted papers must describe work not previously
published, and they must neither be accepted nor under review at a journal
or at another conference with refereed proceedings.
Authors are required to submit their manuscripts electronically in PDF using
the LNCS style. Authors using LaTeX can download the needed macros at
Springer-Verlag site. Papers should not exceed 15 pages; full proofs may
appear in a clearly marked technical appendix which will be read at the
reviewers' discretion. The submission process is managed by EasyChair. 

https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=mcu2015

The proceedings will be available at the conference venue. It will be an
LNCS volume by Springer Verlag.
There will be a best paper and a best student paper award.
