    Description of the Workshop 
    


In collaboration with the Chairs of the International Conference on 
Computational Science ICCS2004, we organize a  
workshop
"Computational Modeling of Transport on Networks" 
as a part of ICCS 2004 . 
The conference will take place in Krakow, Poland, June 7-9 2004. 
    


    
The workshop will bring together researchers in the area of computational 
modeling of real-world network topologies and transport as well as on queuing processes 
on these networks. The prime intention is to discuss universal features 
within the framework of statistical methods. In particular: 
The relevance of topology for the efficiency of transport; 
Restructuring of networks to meet requirements of the transport and 
Design and optimization of the transport process parameters for optimal use 
of a given network structure; 
Applications in real-network problems such as information traffic on 
the Internet, networks for distributed computing, banking networks, 
Web search, protein transport in biological networks, car traffic, 
communication and disease spreading in social structures.  


    Subjects & Objectives 
    
The workshop  will consist of approximately
ten talks on the related subjects 
which will be selected from submitted papers. 
The list of topics include computational models, 
applications,  and algorithms for: 


      

       Information traffic on communication networks 

      

       Random walks & search on complex graphs 
       
      

       Optimization procedures of network's topology & transport 
       
      

       Queuing and jamming on graphs of given topology 

      

       Restructuring & self-organization of networks 

      

       Algorithms for finding topological & functional units on complex 
networks

      

    
The main objectives are to search - by means of computational modeling 
and statistical physics - for unifying features of transport on
various network topologies and for inter-dependencies of transport
process and network topology. 



    Procedure for Participation in the Workshop 
    

The general procedures of the Conference 
ICCS2004 also apply to 
the workshop. Talks will be selected among the submitted 
papers (see below for more information on style and length). 
According to ICCS's practice, all papers will be 
reviewed; the accepted papers will be presented and published in 
Lecture Notes in Computer Science. 
All workshop participants should be formally registered for ICCS2004.
For formal application please contact the official 
Conference site  directly

    
The 
Workshop Organizers are responsible for the scientific part of the 
workshop only: we are  receiving, reviewing, and selecting the papers.
