Complex
Adaptive Systems are widespread both in the nature and in socio-economic
phenomena. A Multi-Agent Based Complex System has its dynamic behaviour
that is inherently emerging as a result of intensive interactions among
its massive agents. Examples of Multi-Agent Based Complex Systems
include social insects, population aggregations in urbane regions,
market based economy, city taxi cabs, etc. Swarm Intelligence
represents a methodology for analyzing and modeling Multi-Agent Based
Complex Systems, and Emergent Computing is concerned with the
methodology for engineering robust, dependable, self-adaptable
Multi-Agent Based Complex Systems out of massive, simple, unreliable
objects, devices or units. Essentially Emergent Computing represents a
new approach which takes a Collective Intelligence point of view upon
all types of artificial systems, e.g., web/Internet based systems,
social networking, online virtual communities, pervasive/ubiquitous
computing, ambient intelligence, socio-technical systems, and so forth.
SIEC2010 aims to provide a timely international, multi-disciplinary
forum on the latest theories, methods, techniques and applications in
Swarm Intelligence and Emergence Computing.
