The Handbook of Bioinspired Algorithms and Applications seeks to provide an opportunity for researchers to explore the connection between biologically inspired (or bioinspired) techniques and the development of solutions to problems that arise in a variety of problem domains. The power of bioinspired paradigms lies in their capability in dealingwith complex problemswith little or no knowledge about the search space, and thus is particularly well suited to deal with a wide range of computationally intractable optimizations and decision-making applications
