IEEE Computer Society Bio-inspired Computing Special Technical Community (STC) builds up the most extensive professional and academic community in Bio-inspired Computing and enhances human lives by utilizing adaptive computing technologies inspired by biology models. This community will provide an integrative research platform for global researchers interested in Bio-inspired Computing. This would be a community of researchers from worldwide and is planned to be a long-term self-sustaining organization. The two primary goals of this STC are: Promote the design and implementation of Bio-inspired Computing. Facilitate computing that uses biology models to solve complex computing problems. Concerning these primary goals, topics relevant to Bio-inspired Computing STC include (but are not limited to): Bio-inspired integration of data, information, and processes Autonomic, adaptive, and self-organized distributed computing Emerging behaviors in complex distributed systems Intelligent distributed problem-solving and decision making Swarm intelligence and evolutionary computation in distributed and intelligent applications Forecasting through complex system models and bio-inspired models Bio-inspired Complex Internet of Things Artificial Immune System and its Application in Computer Security Information security Intelligent systems
