IWSOS 2012 - 6th International Workshop on Self-organizing Systems

IWSOS 2012 invites submission of full or short manuscripts that present original research results or research ideas, and that have not been previously published or are currently under review by another conference or journal. Any previous or simultaneous publication of related material should be explicitly noted in the submission. All papers must be submitted in PDF format via edas at http://edas.info/N11145.
