Bio-inspired Information and Communications Technologies 14th EAI International Conference, BICT 2023, Okinawa, Japan, April 11-12, 2023, Proceedings

This book constitutes the refereed conference proceedings of the 14^th International Conference on Bio-inspired Information and Communications Technologies, held in Okinawa, Japan, during April 11-12, 2023.

The 17 full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 33 submissions. The papers focus on the latest research that leverages the understanding of key principles, processes, and mechanisms in biological systems for development of novel information and communications technologies (bio-inspired ICT). BICT 2023 will also highlight innovative research and technologies being developed for biomedicine that are inspired by ICT (ICT-inspired biomedicine).
