Bio-Inspired Computing: Theories and Applications (BIC-TA) is one of the flagship conferences on Bio-Computing bringing together the world's leading scientists from different areas of Natural Computing. Since 2006 the conferences have taken place at Wuhan (2006), Zhengzhou (2007), Adelaide (2008), Beijing (2009) and Liverpool & Changsha (2010). Following the successes of previous events, the Sixth International Conference on Bio-Inspired Computing: Theories and Applications (BIC-TA 2011) is being organised and hosted for the first time in Malaysia by the School of Computer Sciences, Universiti Sains Malaysia, Penang, 27th to 29th September, 2011. BIC-TA 2011 aims to provide a high-level international forum for researchers with different backgrounds working in the related areas to present their latest results and exchange ideas.

The proceedings of the BIC-TA 2011 will be indexed by the Scopus, EI and IEEE Xplore (pending approval). Authors of selected high quality papers will be invited to revise and extend their work for publication in a special issue of SCI journals. Details about the post-conference publication will be provided in due course.
