Hi,

The First International Workshop on Guided Self-Organisation  
(GSO-2008) will be held 24-27 November 2008, in Sydney, Australia:
http://www.prokopenko.net/gso.html

The balance between design and self-organisation is the main theme of  
GSO-2008. The following topics are of special interest:
- information-driven self-organisation (IDSO),
- systems biology,
- complex systems and networks,
- computational neuroscience and neuroinformatics;
- applications of GSO to cooperative and modular robotics,
- applications of GSO to sensor networks and energy grids.

The workshop is open to researchers in self-organising systems, though  
for practical considerations the total number of participants will be  
limited to 50 at the maximum. If you are interested in attending and/ 
or presenting, please send an email to <Mikhail.Prokopenko at csiro.au>  
by 31 October 2008, with a title and an abstract (1 page) of your  
possible contribution. Following the Workshop, a formal call for  
papers will be issued for a special journal issue.
