In seeking new methods to cope with greater communication demands, researchers are finding inspiration in examples presented by nature. Considering a range of sources from insect to primate communication, leading researches present state-of-the-art approaches and novel technologies for developing bio-inspired models. They cover mathematical models and present experimental studies of bio-inspired computing and communications. They explore bio-inspired topology control and reconfiguration methods, as well as bio-inspired localization, synchronization, and mobility approaches. They also delve into such forward thinking concepts as the evolution and self-healing of network architectures.
