First Workshop on Bio-inspired Models and Technologies for an Ambient Information Society, Boston, US
This workshop aims to bring together researchers and scientists from several research areas, including biology and information sciences, to foster research and development of novel ambient society technologies, architectures and control methods.
The ambient information society can be summarised as an environment designed so that the user is not consciously aware of the presence of information and communication technologies. This is done by using a system that comprehensively understands the user's needs and effectively transmits information through various information devices embedded in the environment.
New innovative technologies are required to address the expected challenges of the ambient information society, such as understanding user desires, recognition of environmental conditions, adaptation of ambient systems and the provisioning of information to users. Biologically-inspired approaches are promising in building such technologies by opening up an interdisciplinary way of thinking and working.
Topics at the conference are set include:
- mathematical models of biological systems,
- bio-inspired application technologies for ambient information society,
- bio-inspired information technologies for ambient information society,
- bio-inspired networking technologies for ambient information society,
- bio-inspired interface technologies for ambient information society.For further information, please visit:
