Ninth International Conference on Evolvable Systems - 'From biology to hardware', York, UK
6 September 2010 - 6 September 2010
United Kingdom
The Ninth International Conference on Evolvable Systems - 'From biology to hardware' will be held in York, UK from 6 to 8 September 2010.
In the mid-1990s, researchers began applying evolutionary algorithms to new kinds of programmable electronic devices that allowed the functionality and physical connections of circuits to be modified both easily and inexpensively. The combination of these programmable devices and of evolutionary algorithms spawned a new research field: evolvable hardware.
Since that time, the field has expanded beyond the use of evolutionary algorithms on simple electronic devices to encompass many different combinations of biologically-inspired algorithms and physical (real or simulated) devices.
The event will be looking to bring together researchers who combine biologically inspired concepts with hardware and presenting the latest developments in the field. There will be a series of speeches on each of the three days, centred on morning and afternoon sessions. Keynote speeches will cover the following topics:
- 'Biologically-inspired, massively-parallel architectures - computing beyond a million processors',
- 'Analysis by synthesis'
- 'Using DNA to construct molecular systems'.For further information, please visit:
