CBIC’2011 is a biannual scientific event, organized and sponsored by the SBIC – Brazilian Computational Intelligence Society (former Brazilian Neural Networks Society, SBRN). Previously known by the acronym CBRN (Brazilian Congress of Neural Networks), a series of conferences CBRN / CBIC has become the principal national forum for scientists, engineers, educators and students to share ideas about new theories, techniques, methods and systems applications of artificial bioinspired (Neural Networks, Fuzzy Logic and Evolutionary Computation), as well as emerging research areas, such as Hybrid Systems, DNA Computing, Complex Systems, Quantum Computation and others.

CBIC’2011 will occur on November 8 – 11th. The venue will be Fortaleza, Ceará, Brazil (Praia Centro Hotel).

As in previous editions of CBRN, the event CBIC’2011 also aims to create a friendly environment that can lead to the establishment and/or strengthening of technical and scientific cooperation among its participants.
