Computer systems are distinguished by an eternally mounting complexity and
distinct distributed nature. Decentralized distributed architectures P2P,
Grid etc... , are more and more popular. These systems call for novel
algorithms to be proficiently managed. Nature Inspired Computing (NIC) is
one that intends to build up new computing methods after getting ideas by
observing how nature behaves in different circumstances to solve very
complex problems. Research on NIC has opened new branches such as
evolutionary computation, neural networks, artificial immune systems,
swarm intelligence, cellular automata and so on. Techniques based on
nature-inspired techniques can offer efficient solutions to a wide variety
of issues in distributed computing.
The aim of this special issue is to highlight the most significant recent
advances in Nature Inspired Distributed Computing. We invite authors to
submit original research papers that will enhance the research efforts in
this area.
