About the Editor
This book, Advances in Memristor Circuits and Bioinspired Systems, is a collection of research works presented at Nazarbayev University in pursuit of excellence in two distinct areas of systems applications by observing biological systems and emerging technology of memristors circuits. In particular, the book features the collection of papers presented at Workshop on Bioinspired Sensors, Circuits, Systems and Applications, and Integrated circuits and programming conference (ICP 2015), that took place on 23-25 February, 2015, and 16 April, 2015 respectively.
A wide spectrum of interesting research ideas is presented in this book as short papers, full length papers and review papers. All the contributing papers have undergone several rounds of review and the overall acceptance rate of the papers is 25%. It presents a mix of theory and practice that is fundamentally inclined towards realistic applications. This will be useful for researchers and students with interest to technologies related to biosensors, memristors, image processing and computational modelling.
It is also imperative to note that the works presented in this book is largely as a result of undergraduate research work undergone during normal taught coursework hours. This book is a mandate of proof that research ideas can originate from taught courses and can encourage young researchers to practise theory and turn that into realistic application. I hope that the materials presented in the book will be useful to researchers and community at large.
