description

Biologically Inspired Computing places its emphasis on robustness, adaptability, and emergent organization considering the interaction of many processes. Bio-inspired algorithms exhibit strength and flexibility in poorly defined or time-variable tasks, as well as when the global behaviour is achieved by simple interacting of species or agents. The above philosophy links various disciplines such as artificial and computationally intelligence, evolutionary computation, bio-robotics, agent-based systems, and Digital Ecosystems. In this paper, the main branches of bio-inspired computing are briefly discussed. Successively, the impact of the bioinspired paradigm on innovative hardware structures is outlined.
