A more recent trend is to explore the applicability of bio-inspired approaches to the development of self-organizing, evolving, adaptive and autonomous information technologies, which will meet the requirements of next-generation information systems, such as diversity, scalability, robustness, and resilience. These new technologies will become a base on which to build a networked symbiotic environment for pleasant, symbiotic society of human beings in the 21st century. Bio-ADIT 2006 follows the success of the first workshop Bio-ADIT 2004 held at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland in January 2004. The workshop is intended to provide an effective forum for original research results in the field of bio- inspired approaches to advanced information technologies. It will also serve to foster the connection between biological paradigms and solutions to building the next-generation information systems. SCOPE: The primary focus of the workshop is on new and original research results in the areas of information systems inspired by biology. We invite you to submit papers that present novel, challenging, and innovative results. The topics include all aspects of bio-inspired information technologies in networks, distributed/parallel systems, hardware (including robotics) and software. We also encourage you to submit papers dealing with: - Self-organizing, self-repairing, self-replicating and self-stabilizing systems - Evolving and adapting systems - Autonomous and evolutionary software and robotic systems - Scalable, robust and resilient systems - Complex biosystems - Gene, protein and metabolic networks - Symbiosis networks - Synthetic biology for IT evolution INVITED SPEAKERS: The following invited speakers are confirmed: Prof. Toshio Yanagida (Osaka University) Prof. James Liao (UCLA, University of California, Los Angeles) Prof. Rolf Pfeifer (University of Zurich) SUBMISSION OF PAPERS: Authors are invited to submit complete and original papers. Papers submitted should not have been previously published in any forum, nor be under review for any journal or other conference. All submitted papers will be refereed for quality, correctness, originality and relevance. All accepted papers will be published in official proceedings with an ISBN number by a major international publisher, and be available at the conference. Manuscripts should include an abstract and be limited to 16 pages in single spaced and single column format. Submissions should include the title, author(s), author's affiliation, e-mail address, fax number and postal address. In the case of multiple authors, an indication of which author is responsible for correspondence and preparing the camera ready paper should also be included. Electronic submission is strongly encouraged. Preferred file formats are PDF (.pdf) or Postscript (.ps). Visit our Web site at http://www.ist.osaka-u.ac.jp/bio-adit2006/ for more information. Please contact Dr. Masuzawa if you have to submit hard copies. Manuscripts should be submitted by July 31, 2005 through the Bio-ADIT Web site.
