THE CONFERENCE

The International Conference on Unconventional Computation and Natural Computation has been a forum where scientists with different backgrounds, yet sharing a common interest in novel forms of computation, human-designed computation inspired by nature, and the computational aspects of processes taking place in nature, meet and present their latest results. Continuing this tradition, the 13th International Conference on Unconventional Computation and Natural Computation will focus on the current experimental and theoretical results with the greatest impact.

TOPICS

Papers and poster presentations are sought in all areas that relate to unconventional computation and natural computation. Both theoretical and experimental papers are welcome. Typical, but not exclusive, topics are:

Molecular (DNA) computing, Quantum computing, Optical computing, Hypercomputation - relativistic computation, Chaos computing, Physarum computing, Computation in hyperbolic spaces, Collision-based computing, Computations beyond the Turing model;
Cellular automata, Neural computation, Evolutionary computation, Swarm intelligence, Ant algorithms, Artificial immune systems, Artificial life, Membrane computing, Amorphous computing;
Computational Systems Biology, Genetic networks, Protein-protein networks, Transport networks, Synthetic biology, Cellular (in vivo) computing.
