Workshop Title: Bio-Inspired Models for Industrial Applications:
Duration of the Workshop: 1 day (based on the number of submisions).

Technical Description of the Workshop Topic area

Computing models inspired by biology is a way to make use of concepts, principles and mechanisms underlying biological systems. This type of computing includes among others, fields as evolutionary algorithms, neural networks, molecular computing and quantum computing. The special workshop is soliciting papers on all aspects of Bio-inspired Models applied to the field of Industrial Applications. Because of the interdisciplinary character of the conference a special effort will be made to solicit survey, review, and tutorial papers which would make research trends in a given subarea more accessible to the broad audience of the conference.

The scope of this special workshop covers the following bio-inpired models and related techniques and their industrial applications:

• Evolutionary Computing
• Swarm intelligence
• Neurocomputing
• Immunological Computing
• Hybrid Methods
• Intelligent Agents and Agent Theory
• Other topics

The application fields of interest cover but are not limited to:

• Decision Support
• Process and System Control
• System Identification and Modelling
• Optimisation
• Signal or Image Processing
• Vision or Pattern Recognition
• Condition Monitoring
• Fault Diagnosis
• Systems Integration
• Internet Tools
• Human-Machine Interface
• Time Series Prediction
• Robotics
• Motion Control and Power Electronics
• Biomedical Engineering
• Virtual Reality
• Reactive Distributed AI
• Telecommunications
• Consumer Electronics
• Industrial Electronics
• Manufacturing Systems
• Power and Energy
• Data Mining
• Data Visualisation
• Intelligent Information Retrieval
• Autonomous Reasoning
• Intelligent Agents
