The 1st International Conference on the Theory and
Practice of Natural Computing (TPNC 2012) invites authors to submit poster
presentations. TPNC 2012 will be held in Tarragona (Spain) on 2-4 October,
2012. See
http://grammars.grlmc.com/tpnc2012/
Poster presentations are intended to enhance informal interactions
with the conference participants, at the same time permitting in-depth discussion.
TOPICS
We encourage authors to submit presentations that discuss novel
work in progress on:
-
nature-inspired models of
computation,
-
synthesis of nature by means of
computation,
-
nature-inspired materials,
-
information processing in nature,
-
applications of natural computing.
Posters do not need to present final research results. Work
that is being developed and may lead to new interesting ideas is welcome.
