Workshop Overview

The Workshop on Biomedicine in Computing: Systems, Architectures, and Circuits (BiC) provides a forum for discussing topics related to the intersection of computing and the biological sciences. Computing systems can aid in the study of biological systems, be implanted into biological systems, and have their design inspired by that of biological systems. Further, many emerging medical microelectronic applications can potentially revolutionize the way we perform diagnosis and treatment of diseases, enable human augmentation, and advance understanding of bio-physiological systems.

The goal of this workshop is to bring together researchers from computing and the biological sciences for scholarly and technical exchange on a broad range of topics related to biomedical computing, including, but not limited to:

  • Architectures for interfacing to biological systems
  • Custom computing machines for the biological science applications
  • Architectures for bio-implantation
  • Biologically inspired architectures
  • Computer architectures constructed from biological building blocks
  • Workload characterization for existing and emerging biomedical applications
  • Performance evaluation, measurement, and benchmarking of real biomedical systems
  • Design for bio-compatibility, reliability, dependability, and security
