Special Issue on: Bio-Inspired Business Systems
Aim and Scope
Computational and financial econometrics has been of interest for a wide variety of researchers in economics, finance, statistics, mathematics and computing. Financial time series analysis focus on asset valuations over time with emphases on option pricing, volatility measurement, and modelling market microstructure effects. Apart from theoretical developments,financial time series analyses also have a high empirical content. The computational aspects of such analyses are of crucial importance since one typically deals with high-dimensional problems and large numbers of observations. Existing algorithms often do not utilize the best computational techniques for efficiency, stability, or conditioning. Furthermore, environments for conducting econometrics are inherently computer based. Integrated econometrics packages have grown well over the years, but still have much room for development. The field of biologically inspired computing has advanced rapidly over the past decade. One offshoot of this progress has been the development of plethoras of biologically inspired algorithms. Broadly speaking, biologically inspired algorithms draw metaphorical inspiration from diverse sources, including the operation of biological neurons, processes of evolution, models of social interaction amongst organisms, and natural immune systems, in order to develop tools for solving real-world problems. The behavior of social insects e.g. ant, bees, bacterial, birds etc largely influence several problem solving metaphors.The problem encompasses from cargo scheduling, routing, service management, telecommunication management, financial forecasting, human resource modeling and many more. The potential of web intelligence merged with biological algorithms also drastically contribute the manifold avenues of implementing different random distribution strategies on web paradigm especially web based adslot management etc. This could be the next generation commitment of business.
This special issue is devoted to advances in theory and applications of the Bio-inspired computational Intelligence in Business Systems. Roughly speaking, to develop effective and bio-intelligent business applications and services, it is crucial to discover useful knowledge through analyzing large amounts of contents, hidden content structures, or usage patterns of web data resources. For example, more and more business transactions are processed via the Internet. Digital content is distributed online, transactions are managed and sensitive information is exchanged. The development and realization of business models for secure, user-friendly and technically efficient distribution of virtual goods – e.g. MP3-files – is the emphasis in the business area "Media Distribution and Security. To achieve such a goal, a variety of techniques in diverse research areas is needed to integrate properly, including artificial neural networks, Genetic algorithm, rough sets, evolutionary algorithms and business intelligence applications such as Mission-critical and integral to an enterprise's operations or occasional to meet a special requirement, enterprise-wide or local to one division, department, or project, centrally initiated or driven by user demand, etc. This special issue intends to provide a premier and open forum for the dissemination of innovative bio-inspired computational techniques in business intelligence systems applications.
