4th International Conference on Bio-Inspired Models of Network,
Information, and Computing Systrems
December 9-11, 2009 - Avignon, France
Technology is taking us to a world where myriads of heavily networked
devices interact with the physical world in multiple ways, and at multiple
scales, from the global Internet scale down to micro and nano-devices. Many
of these devices are highly mobile and autonomous, and must adapt to the
surrounding environment in a totally unsupervised way. The fundamental
research challenge is the design of robust decentralized computing systems,
capable of operating under changing environments and noisy input, and yet
exhibit the desired behavior and response time, under constraints such as
energy consumption, size, and processing power. These systems should be able
to adapt and learn how to react to unforeseen scenarios as well as to
display properties comparable to social entities. Biological systems are
able to handle many of these challenges with an elegance and efficiency
still far beyond current human artifacts. Based on this observation,
bio-inspired approaches have been proposed in the past years as a strategy
to handle the complexity of such systems. The goal is to obtain methods on
how to engineer technical solutions which have similar high stability and
efficiency as biological entities often have. The BIONETICS conference aims
at bringing together researchers and scientists from several disciplines in
computer science and engineering where bio-inspired methods are
investigated. We are soliciting high-quality original papers in the
following areas including but not limited to these topics:
- * Bio-Inspired mathematical models, methods and tools *
- * Bio-inspired algorithms and mechanism *
- * Bio-inspired technical systems *
- * Bio-inspired information and communication systems (ICT) *
*PAPERS*:
The conference invites original technical papers that have not been
previously published and are not currently under review for publication
elsewhere. Contributions addressing all areas related to bio-inspired
technologies are solicited.
* SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS: *
All paper, poster, panel, and workshop submissions will be handled
electronically. Please visit the conference website
http://www.bionetics.orgfor detailed submission requirements and
procedures.
* PUBLICATION:*
All submitted papers and posters will be rigorously reviewed by technical
program committee members and the reviewers they invite. A selected number
of best papers will be considered for publication in a *leading journal*.
*IMPORTANT DATES*
- *Paper Submission Due Date: *June 21th, 2009
- *Notification of Acceptance:* August 21th,, 2009
- *Camera Ready Version Due:* September 20th, 2009
