Bio-Inspired Computing: Theories and Applications (BIC-TA) is one of the flagship conferences on Bio-Computing bringing together the world’s leading scientists from different areas of Natural Computing. Since 2006 the conferences have taken place at Wuhan (2006), Zhengzhou (2007), Adelaide (2008), Beijing (2009) , Liverpool & Changsha (2010). Malaysia(2011)and India(2012),Following the successes of previous events, the eighth International Conference on Bio-Inspired Computing: Theories and Applications (BIC-TA 2013) is being organised and hosted in China by Anhui University of Science and Technology , 12th to 14th July, 2013. BIC-TA 2013 aims to provide a high-level international forum for researchers with different backgrounds working in the related areas to present their latest results and exchange ideas.

All accepted papers by the BIC-TA 2013 will be published in the Springer-Verlag journal” Lecture Notes in Computer Science(LNCS)“, which are all indexed by EI-Compendex,some excellent papers will be published in these SCI journals“Applied Mathematics &Information Sciences(SCI)”, “Fuzzy Optimization and Decision Making(SCI)”,”Information(SCI)”.
