Call for Papers
Traditional computing architectures are designed to produce reliable systems with specifiable
behaviours and properties. Their major strengths come from easiness of inspection, maintenance,
interoperability, and reuse. However, all modern computing systems operate based on strict
assumptions about their environments, thus are too inflexible to react to changing demands. In
critical environments such as industrial automation, smart grids and dependable cyber-physical
systems in general, this inflexibility results in serious in many cases life-critical errors. Alternative
computing architectures, which greatly borrow their functionality from the versatility and efficiency
of systems developed by nature, are known as biologically-inspired cognitive computing
architectures (BICA). Traditionally these architectures find their applications in areas like natural
language processing, image and speech processing. Very little attention so far was paid at exploring
their applicability in the context of dependable industrial systems. This special session solicits
contributions exploring diverse applications of BICA architectures for enriching intelligent
functionality of industrial systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
• Associative memory based reasoning
• Combined machine learning / BICA solutions
• Neural networks in cognitive computing architectures
• Cognitive architectures for continuous signal processing
• Cognitive fault detection and system identification
• Cognitive and hybrid automatic control
• Cognitive wireless communications
• Symbiosis of cognitive and Von-Neumann computing architectures
• Novel application areas and use-cases for BICA architectures in CPS and IoT.
• BICA empowered software engineering
• Spiking Neural Networks interfacing BICA architectures. Industrial usecases.
