11th EAI International Conference on Bio-inspired Information and Communications Technologies -- Springer, Ei Compendex, Scopus, ISI -- at Carnegie Mellon University

BICT (Ei, Scopus, ISI) 2019


Artificial Intelligence



Scope
---------------
The International Conference on Bio-inspired Information and Communications Technologies (BICT) provides a unique venue for researchers and practitioners in diverse disciplines to seek the understanding of key principles, processes, and mechanisms in biological systems and leverage those understandings in design, engineering, and technological applications.
The 2019 edition of the conference, due to be held at the Carnegie Mellon University on March 12-13, is expected to have a vibrant program featuring peer-reviewed papers, keynote speakers, panels, multiple technical sessions, focused special tracks, interactive demonstrations, poster sessions, informative co-located workshops, tutorials, artwork, and social events.
