Abstract
Natural Computing (see, e.g., [12,13]) is concerned with human-designed computing inspired by nature as well as with computation taking place in nature, i.e., it investigates models, computational techniques, and computational technologies inspired by nature as well as it investigates, in terms of information processing, phenomena/processes taking place in nature.
