The Second World Congress on Nature and Biologically Inspired Computing (NaBIC 2010) will be held at the Kitakyushu International Conference Center, Kitakyushu, Japan in December 15 – 17 (Wednesday – Friday), 2010.

NABIC’10 brings together international researchers, developers, practitioners, and users. The aim of NaBIC is to serve as a forum to present current and future work, as well as to exchange research ideas in this field. NABIC’10 invites authors to submit their original and unpublished work that demonstrates current research in all areas of Nature and Biologically Inspired Computing, as well as proposals for workshops, industrial presentations, demonstrations, and tutorials. The conference theme is Nurturing Intelligent Computing Towards Advancement of Machine Intelligence. As we would like to establish a new direction for our young NaBIC conference series, we decided to continue to use the same theme as NaBIC2009, and emphasize this direction as our message.

One of the main features of NaBIC2010 is the style of plenary talks. The NaBIC2010 Emergent Technologies Committee surveys and decides emergent technologies within the scope of the NaBIC topic, and the top experts in the areas are invited as plenary speakers to give tutorial talks on hot emergent technologies.

All accepted and registered papers will be included in the conference proceedings, to be published by the Conference Publishing Services (CPS) of the IEEE Computer Society Press.
