SCOPE:
The interest on autonomous systems is increasing both in industry and 
academia.
Such systems must operate with limited human intervention in a changing
environment and must be able to compensate for significant system 
failures
without external intervention. The hybrid discrete-continuous models 
constitute
appropriate models of autonomous systems . Hybrid systems have 
behaviours
characterised by  the interaction between continuous and discrete 
dynamics and
research in the area is driven by  several school of thoughts. One 
approach is
mainly focussed on applications to automation systems and the models and 
methods
are centred on the concept of hybrid automaton (deterministic or 
probabilistic).
A distinct school of thought interprets hybrid systems as control 
systems with
regime change. Such systems are highly adaptive and suitable for 
modelling
autonomic behaviours. The most prominent models of this approach are the
stochastic hybrid systems and the mixed logical and dynamical systems. 
There is
a clear research opportunity to combine these approaches for developing 
models,
methods, techniques, methodologies, tools and environments for 
autonomous
systems engineering. This workshop brings together researchers 
interested in all
aspects
of autonomy and resilience of hybrid systems.

TOPICS:
Topics include (but are not limited to):
Ø new modelling paradigms for autonomous systems;
Ø verification and safety certification techniques;
Ø modelling, analysis and control of hybrid systems;
Ø uncertainty and stochastic modelling;
Ø multi-agent systems;
Ø algebraic and categorical methods;
Ø interaction between hybrid modelling and complexity science;
Ø reports on case studies and practical experiments;
Ø autonomous systems in natural science (e.g. from biology, ecology, 
climate).

INVITED SPEAKERS:

* Maria Domenica di Benedetto, L'Aquila University, IT
* Radu Grosu, Vienna University of Technology, AU
* Rafael Wisniewski, Aalborg University, DEN


SUBMISSIONS:

In order to encourage participation and discussion, this workshop 
solicits
the submission of regular papers, which must contain original work, and
must not have been previously published, nor be under consideration for
publication elsewhere. The accepted submissions should clearly indicate
the membership to one of the following categories:
- technical contributions;
- tutorials on a topic of importance;
- surveys on large extent cross-disciplinary research (e.g., project
outcomes);wor
- reports on early stage or ongoing work.
For each category of submission the novelty of the submission has to be 
clearly
stated and
the page limit should vary between 6 and 15 pages.

All submissions must be in PDF format and use the EPTCS latex style, see
http://style.eptcs.org/. Submissions can be made on the following 
website:

   https://www.easychair.org/conferences/login_as_yes.cgi?a=3413468

The workshop PC will review all regular paper submissions to select
appropriate ones, ones for acceptance in each category, based on their
relevance, merit,  originality, and technical content.
The authors of accepted submissions are expected to present and discuss
their work at the workshop. Accepted regular papers will be published
in the Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science (EPTCS).
A special issue in a journal is under consideration.




IMPORTANT DATES:
    Submission (regular paper): January 3, 2013
    Notification: January 24, 2013
    Final version (ETAPS proceedings): February 14, 2013
    Workshop: March 17, 2013
