Recently we have witnessed a burst of research in unconventional computing, resulting in the development of experimental prototypes of natural computers plasmodium computers, reaction-diffusion processors and DNA computers as well as theoretical paradigms of natural computation such as cellular automata, artificial chemistry, evolutionary computing, and neural networks. The International Workshop on Natural Computing (IWNC) aims to bring together computer scientists, biologists, mathematicians, electronic engineers, physicists etc. to critically assess present findings in the field, and to outline future developments in nature-inspired computing. |
