Nature-Inspired Computation and Optimization
(Editors: Srikanta Patnaik, Xin-She Yang, Kazumi Nakamatsu)
to be publisher by Springer in late 2016.

Both nature-inspired computation and optimization have significant developments in recent years. The above edited book strives to provide a timely review of the latest developments. We have received many high-quality chapters that are under review. In order to broaden the coverage of the topics in this book, you are invited to submit their contributions in all areas of nature-inspired computation and optimization. Topics include (but not limited):

* Nature-inspired computation (algorithms such as ant colony optimization, bee algorithms, bat algorithm, cuckoo search, firefly algorithm, gravitational search, harmony search, flower pollination algorithm, particle swarm optimization, etc).

* Optimization and applications (in engineering, science, industry and business, etc).

* New methods and case studies.

Researchers are welcome to submit their book chapter (in the standard Springer book chapter format) using the following link
