Abstract
Natural computing is concerned with human-designed computing inspired by nature as well as with computations taking place in nature, i.e., it investigates phenomena taking place in nature in terms of information processing.
Well-known examples of the first strand of research are evolutionary computing, neural computation, cellular automata, swarm intelligence, molecular computing, quantum computation, artificial immune systems, and membrane computing.
