*************************************** ************************************
AIMS:
TPNC is a co nference series intending to cover the wide spectrum of computational princ iples, models and techniques inspired by information processing in nature. TPNC 2018 will reserve significant room for young scholars at the beginning of their career and particular focus will be put on methodology. The confe rence aims at attracting contributions to nature-inspired models of computa tion, synthesizing nature by means of computation, nature-inspired material s, and information processing in nature.
VENUE:

Michael Smurfit Graduate Business School
University Co llege Dublin
Carysfort Avenue
Blackrock
Co. Dublin
