BADS 2009International Workshop on Bio-Inspired Algorithms for Distributed Systemshttp://bads.icar.cnr.itemail: badsicar.cnr.itBarcelona, Spain, June 19, 2009In association with ICAC 2009the 6th IEEE International Conference on Autonomic Computing & CommunicationsBarcelona, Spain, June 15-19, 2009January 31, 2009: Submission of PapersMarch 15, 2009: Notification of Acceptance/ RejectionApril 06, 2009: Submission of Camera-Ready CopiesJune 19, 2009: Workshop Takes PlaceThe workshop proceedings will be published by ACMalong with the proceedings of the other ICAC workshops,and distributed at the conference.Selected papers will be invited to a special issue of the journalFuture Generation Computer Systems, Elsevier (approved).Currently used computer systems are characterized by an evergrowing complexity and a pronounced distributed nature. Whilethe use of centralized or hierarchical architectures and algorithmshas been dominant so far, they are now becoming impracticalbecause they have poor scalability and fault-tolerancecharacteristics. Decentralized architectures and algorithms, forexample P2P and Grid systems, are increasingly popular, but theyneed new types of algorithms to be efficiently managed.Bio-inspired algorithms are proving effective, since they can solvehard parallel and distributed computational problems through theinteraction of multiple agents. The behaviour of agents is ofteninspired by a number of biological systems, including antcolonies, bird flocking, honey bees, bacteria, and many more. Thesolution of a problem can emerge from the activity of "intelligent"agents that perform complex functionalities or from the interactionof a large number of very simple agents, in the so called "swarmintelligence" systems. These kinds of techniques feature fault-tolerantand self-adaptive behaviours that help to boost theautonomic nature of distributed systems. Such techniques aresometimes "evolutionary", as they can exploit genetic rules for theselection and the recombination of candidate solutions.Bio-inspired algorithms and systems are routinely applied to hardand large problems in a variety of areas. Some examples areoptimization problems solved with genetic algorithms, routingstrategies inspired by honey bee behaviour, resource discoveryand data mining computations in Grid and P2P frameworksachieved by ant-inspired algorithms, and so on.The workshop aims to gather scientists, engineers, andpractitioners to share and exchange their experiences, discusschallenges, and report state-of-the-art and in-progress research onBio-Inspired Algorithms and Systems.In this workshop we are interested in the exploitation of bio-inspiredalgorithms and systems to support the effective design and efficient implementation of distributed systems.The topics of interest include (but are not limited to):* Bio-inspired algorithms for parallel and distributed computing* Bio-inspired algorithms for P2P and Grid systems* Bio-inspired techniques for the construction and management of distributed systems* Parallel and distributed techniques of Swarm Intelligence: ant colonies, flock of birds, etc..* Parallel and distributed evolutionary algorithms* High performance tools for bio-inspired algorithms and systems* Application of bio-inspired algorithms to routing, resource discovery,scheduling in parallel and distributed systems* Bio-inspired algorithms for data mining, bioinformatics, etc.Gianluigi Folino, ICAR-CNR, Italy, folinoicar.cnr.itNatalio Krasnogor, University of Nottingham, UK, nxkcs.nott.ac.ukCarlo Mastroianni, ICAR-CNR, Italy, mastroianniicar.cnr.itFranco Zambonelli, Universita' di Modena e Reggio Emilia, Italy, franco.zambonelliunimore.itIvanoe De Falco, ICAR-CNR, ItalyMarios Dikaiakos, University of CyprusGiovanna Di Marzo, University of London, UKMarco Dorigo, Universit?
