2006 International Conference on Intelligent Computing (ICICĄŻ06)  

(http://www.ic-ic.org/2006/index.htm

August 16-19, 2006

Harbour Plaza, Kunming, China 

This is the second International Conference on Intelligent Computing, which is to built upon the success of ICICĄŻ05 held in Hefei, China. The intelligent computing annual conference primarily aims to promote the research, development and application of advanced intelligent computing techniques by providing a vibrant and effective forum across a variety of disciplines to be presented. This conference has a further aim of increasing the awareness of industry of advanced intelligent computing techniques and the economic benefits that can be gained by implementing them.


The concept of intelligent computing is quite fluid and perhaps this is the strength. It is seen to include a range of techniques such as artificial intelligence, evolutionary and adaptive computing, bio-inspired computing, fuzzy inference, case based and constrained reasoning, agents, networking and computer supported co-operative working, human computer interface issues, etc. 


Our theme unifies the picture of contemporary intelligent computing techniques as an integral concept that highlights the trends in advanced computational intelligence and bridges theoretical research with applications. Particularly in recent years, bio-inspired computing emerges as a key role in pursuing for novel technology. The resulting techniques vitalize life science engineering and daily life applications. In light of this trend, the theme for this conference is Emerging Intelligent Computing Technology and Applications. Only original high quality papers related to this theme are especially solicited, including theories, methodologies, and applications in science and technology. Topics covering industrial issues/applications and academic research into intelligent computing will be included, but not limited to:
