                      A satellite event of ICALP/LICS 2007
=======================================================================



Several new models of computation have emerged in the last few years,
and many developments of traditional computational models have been
proposed with the aim of taking into account the new demands of
computer system users and the new capabilities of computation
engines. A new computational model, or a new feature in a traditional
one, usually is reflected in a new family of programming languages,
and new paradigms of software development.

The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers who are
currently developing new computational models or new features for
traditional computational models, in order to foster their
interaction, to provide a forum for presenting new ideas and work in
progress, and to enable newcomers to learn about current activities in
this area.

DCM 2007 will be a one-day satellite event of ICALP/LICS 2007.

Topics of interest include all abstract models of computation and their
applications to the development of programming languages and systems:

- quantum computation, including implementations and formal methods  
in quantum protocols;
- probabilistic computation and verification in modelling situations;
- chemical, biological and bio-inspired computation, including  
spatial models, self-assembly, growth models;
- general concurrent models including the treatment of mobility,  
trust, and security;
- information-theoretic ideas in computing.


Submissions and Publication:

Please submit an abstract (max. 5 pages) in PDF/PostScript
format by e-mail to dezani at di.unito.it  by

                  30 April, 2007.

After the workshop authors will be invited to submit a full paper of
their presentation. Accepted contributions will appear in a special
issue of the ENTCS (Electronic Notes in Theoretical Computer Science).
Selected papers will be considered for special issues of Information  
and Computation
and the Springer Transactions on Computational and Systems Biology.

- Submission Deadline for Abstracts: April 30 2007
- Notification: May 21 2007
- Pre-proceedings version due: June 11 2007
- Workshop: July 15 2007
