GENERAL SCOPE & VENUE

The CNNA series of workshops aims to provide a biannual international forum
to present and discuss recent advances in the theory, application, and
implementation of Cellular Neural Networks.

Following the successful conferences in Budapest (1990), Munich (1992), and
Rome (1994), the fourth workshop will be hosted by the National
Microelectronics Center and the School of Engineering of Seville, in Seville,
Spain, on June 24-26, 1996.

Seville, the capital of Andalusia, and site of the 1992 Universal Exposition,
combines a rich cultural heritage accumulated during its more than 2500 years
of history with modern infrastructures in a stable and sunny climate. It boasts
a large, prestigious university, several high-technology research centers of
the Spanish Council of Research, and many cultural attractions. It is linked to
Madrid by high-speed train and has an international airport serving several
international flights, as well as many connections via Madrid and Barcelona.

The workshop will address theoretical and practical issues in Cellular Neural
Networks theory, applications, and implementations. The technical program will
consist of plenary lectures by experts in selected areas, along with papers and
posters submitted by the participants. Official language will be English.
