| summary | The conference theme will explore novel concepts of information processing and computation, going beyond the classical Turing machine, taking inspiration from studies of brain function and architecture. An understanding of the dynamical processes and the multi-scale integrative complexity observed in biological nervous systems, and in particular in cortical networks of higher vertebrates, gives insight for novel computing paradigms implemented in new generations of parallel, large-scale electronic circuits.
The research effort involves continuous exchange between experimental neuroscience, theoretical modelling, computer science and hardware emulation, and provides an interdisciplinary infrastructure that is unique in Europe.
The conference will include a workshop with contributions from industrial partners and will host key-note speakers and leaders from other projects supported by the EPSRC (UK), IBM, Honda Research and EC ICT-FET (SPINNAKER, the Blue Brain project, Brain-i-Nets, DAISY, SECO) |
