[comp.theory.cell-automata] Recent Conferences with CA talks

kurt@happy.csg.uiuc.edu (Kurt) (12/05/89)

There have been two recent conferences with CA related talks.  

The first was the Computational Physics Conference held at
Boston University, June 5-9 1989.  According to the promotional
info, there was a session dedicated to cellular automata which 
included (among others) talks by Bennett, Doolen, McNamara, and Margolus.
I've tried sending both US and electronic mail to the conference chairman
requesting the titles of the talks but I never received a response.

The second was the Massive Parallelism: Hardware, Programming and 
Applications conference held in  Naples Italy October 9-13 1989.
One of the talks was "Programmable matter: Concepts and Realization"
by Toffoli.

Does anyone know more about the CA related talks at these conferences?
Does a proceedings volume exist for either of them (were papers even
prepared)?
