Workshop on Liquid and Colloid Cybernetic Systems
4th July 2022
UWE, Arnolfini, Bristol
Chairs: Alessandro Chiolerio (IIT, Italy), Andy Adamatzky (UWE Bristol)
Local organizers: Andy Adamatzky and Noushin Raeisi Kheirabadi (UWE Bristol)
Liquid Colloidal Cybernetic Systems represent a radically new science enabling technology capable for distributed sensing, massive-parallel information processing and concurrent decision making. The proposed paradigm is similar to living systems in terms of versatility, adaptability, distributed architecture and autonomy. Such a paradigm has not yet been investigated, due to a lack of systemic approach to colloidal science.
