Complex systems in nature have inspired several new methods for information processing: artificial neural networks resemble neurobiology; genetic algorithms and genetic programming are based on evolutionary processes in nature; the construction of artificial life, the design of autonomous robots and software agents can be based on biological behaviour.
At the same time the computer may serve as a tool to improve the understanding of complex systems in biology and other areas. For biological systems like the brain, the immune system, or genes regulating each other in a cell, mathematical modelling and computer simulations are needed to understand their function and behaviour, and societal systems like economic markets or the traffic in an urban area can be studied through simulations of systems composed by a large number of adaptive agents.
