Sponsored by - The 21st Century Center of Excellence Program of The
Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and - Technology (MEXT),
Japan, under the Program Title "Opening Up New Information Technologies
for Building a Networked Symbiosis Environment"

Technically Co-Sponsored by - IEEE ComSom Japan Chapter

   Biologically inspired approaches have already proved successful in
achieving major breakthroughs in a wide variety of problems in information
technology (IT).  A more recent trend is to explore the applicability of
bio-inspired approaches to the development of self-organizing, evolving,
adaptive and autonomous information technologies, which will meet the
requirements of next-generation information systems, such as diversity,
scalability, robustness, and resilience.  These new technologies will
become a base on which to build a networked symbiotic environment for
pleasant, symbiotic society of human beings in the 21st century.

   Bio-ADIT 2006  follows the success of the first workshop Bio-ADIT
2004 held at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne (EPFL),
Switzerland in January 2004.   The workshop is intended to provide an
effective forum for original research results in the field of bio-
inspired approaches to advanced information technologies.   It will
also serve to foster the connection between biological paradigms and
solutions to building the next-generation information systems.

SCOPE:
   The primary focus of the workshop is on new and original research
results in the areas of information systems inspired by biology. We
invite you to submit papers that present novel, challenging, and
innovative results.  The topics include all aspects of bio-inspired
information technologies in networks, distributed/parallel systems,
hardware (including robotics) and software.  We also encourage you to
submit papers dealing with:
       - Self-organizing, self-repairing, self-replicating and
         self-stabilizing systems
       - Evolving and adapting systems
       - Autonomous and evolutionary software and robotic systems
       - Scalable, robust and resilient systems
       - Complex biosystems
       - Gene, protein and metabolic networks
       - Symbiosis networks
       - Synthetic biology for IT evolution

INVITED SPEAKERS:
   The following invited speakers are confirmed:
    Prof. Toshio Yanagida (Osaka University)
    Prof. James Liao (UCLA, University of California, Los Angeles)
    Prof. Rolf Pfeifer (University of Zurich)

SUBMISSION OF PAPERS:
   Authors are invited to submit complete and original papers.  Papers
submitted should not have been previously published in any forum, nor
be under review for any journal or other conference.  All submitted
papers will be refereed for quality, correctness, originality and
relevance. All accepted papers will be published in official proceedings
with an ISBN number by a major international publisher, and be available
at the conference.

  Manuscripts should include an abstract and be limited to 16 pages in
single spaced and single column format. Submissions should include the
title, author(s), author's affiliation, e-mail address, fax number and
postal address. In the case of multiple authors, an indication of which
author is responsible for correspondence and preparing the camera ready
paper should also be included.   Electronic  submission  is   strongly
encouraged. Preferred file formats are PDF (.pdf) or Postscript (.ps).

   http://www.ist.osaka-u.ac.jp/bio-adit2006/
for more information. Please contact Dr. Masuzawa if you have to submit
hard copies.   Manuscripts should be submitted by July 31, 2005 through
the Bio-ADIT Web site.  Please contact the technical program co-chairs
