               Extended Deadline for submissions: 30 May, 2011
================================================================

DCM 2011 is the seventh in a series of international workshops
focusing on new computational models. It aims to bring together
researchers who are currently developing new computational models
or new features of a traditional one. The goal of DCM is to foster
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 2011 will be a one-day satellite event of ICALP 2011
in Zurich, Switzerland.

TOPICS OF INTEREST:
-------------------
Topics of interest include all abstract models of computation
and their properties, and their applications to the development
of programming languages and systems:

- quantum computation, including implementations and
formal methods in quantum protocols;
- connectionist models of computation, neural nets
- probabilistic computation and verification in modeling 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;
- comparisons of different models of computations;
- information-theoretic ideas in computing.

IMPORTANT DATES:
----------------
Paper Submission:      May  30, 2011
Notification:          June 15, 2011
Workshop               July 03, 2011

SUBMISSIONS:
------------
Please submit a paper via the conference
EasyChair submission page:

 http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=dcm2011

Submissions should be at most 12 pages, in PDF format.
Please use the EPTCS macro package and follow the
instructions of EPTCS:

 http://eptcs.org/
 http://style.eptcs.org/


A submission may contain an appendix, but reading the
appendix should should not be necessary to assess the
merits of a submission.

PUBLICATION:
------------
Accepted contributions will appear in EPTCS
(Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science).

After the workshop, quality permitting full versions of selected
papers will be invited for a special issue in an internationally
leading journal.
