Abstract

We invite you to participate in the 12th edition of the NASA/ESA Conference on Adaptive Hardware and Systems, to be held at the University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, United Kingdom. Adaptation occurs in all living systems and is a desired characteristic of most artificial systems. Adaptation reflects the capability of a system to maintain or improve its performance in the context of internal or external changes, changes in the operational environment, incidental or intentional interference, or trade–offs between performance requirements and available resources. The conference will bring together academic and industrial researchers and government specialists to communicate the latest research results, share experiences, and discuss new applications. We welcome original contributions in the areas of hardware and software adaptation at different levels, including, but not limited to: Adaptation in hardware, for example, as manifested in: Reconfigurable circuits Circuits and structures Prosthetic hardware Wearable devices Fault tolerance and robustness Adaptation in biomedical and bio–inspired systems such as: Soft robots Genomics and systems biology New sensors and sensing systems Adaptive sensing systems: Reconfigurable/multifunctional sensors/antennae Reliable/Fault–tolerant sensors/antennae Reconfigurable/reliable sensing and RF circuits and systems Design methodologies for adaptive systems, e.g., related to: Computer–aided design Performance, cost, power, and reliability strategies Formal methods Adaptation Algorithms Learning and evolutionary algorithms for adaptive hardware Search and optimization algorithms for adaptive hardware On–chip learning and adaptation Automatic/self–calibration Hardware implementations of optimization engines Adaptive image and data compression Adaptation in robotics and unmanned systems, as reflected in: Sensing and perception Navigation and mapping Human–robot interaction Multi–robot teams Cognitive Architectures Tensegrity and compliance Soft robots Applications in areas such as: Space systems and missions Autonomous vehicles Social systems, economics, and finance Telecommunications Biotechnology and pharma Assisted living and healthcare Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning Algorithms Implementations Applications
