Third Call for Participants
2004 International Workshop on Nature Inspired Computation and
Applications (IWNICA'2004)
October 25-29, 2004, Hefei, P. R. China
http://nical.ustc.edu.cn/nica2004/
Nature Inspired Computation, which is inspired from natural systems, has
the unique character of self-adaptive, self-organizing and
self-learning. Because of its ability to solve complex problems that
are difficult for traditional computational methods, Nature Inspired
Computation is now successfully used in many fields such as
Combinational Optimization, Machine Learning, Data Mining and
Engineering Design, etc.
The 2004 International Workshop on Nature Inspired Computation and
Applications will be held on October 25-29, 2004 at the University of
Science and Technology of China (USTC), Hefei, P. R. China. The aim of
this Workshop is to further explore the theories and applications of
Nature Inspired Computation and identify future research directions.
The Workshop provides an excellent opportunity for participants to hear
from many distinguished international experts in the field and exchange
ideas with them. The official language of the Workshop is English.
1. Main Topics
