In this respect, the WIVACE com- munity hasbeenopentoresearchers comingfromexperimentalfieldssuchassystems chemistry and biology, origin of life, and chemical and biological smart networks. WIVACE 2016 was jointly organized with BIONAM 2016, a workshop on bio- nanomaterials, to involve multidisciplinary research focusing on the analysis, synthesis and design, ofbionanomaterials. The communityofBIONAM comprises biophysicists, thebiochemists,andbioengineerscoveringthestudyofthebasicpropertiesofmaterials andtheirinteractionwithbiologicalsystems,thedevelopmentofnewdevicesformedical purposessuchasimplantablesystems,andnewalgorithmsandmethodsformodelingthe mechanical, physical, or biological properties of biomaterials. This challenging task requires powerful theoretical and computational tools to understand and control the inherentcomplexityoftheinteractionsbetweensyntheticandbiologicalobjects. TheinteractionbetweentheWIVACEandtheBIONAMcommunitiesresultedina joint session where the experimental work was harmonized in a well-established the- oretical framework; some selected contributions, having a more theoretical character, have been collected in the section “Modelling and Simulation of Artificial and Bio- logical Systems” of this volume. The WIVACE 2016 volume is divided into two more sections: “Evolutionary Computation and Genetic Algorithms,” which collects selected theoretical and com- putational contributions classically belonging to the WIVACE community, and “Sys- tems Chemistry and Biology,” which collects selected contributions from the interaction between informatics scientists and the biological and chemical community involved in complex systems studies. Among others, we would like to mention the contributionsoftwoinvitedspeakers,representativeofthisinteraction:“Mathematical ModelinginSystemsBiology”byOlliYli-Harjaand“AStrategytoFaceComplexity: The Development of Chemical Artificial Intelligence” by Pier Luigi Gentili. Events like WIVACE are generally a good opportunity for new-generation or soon-to-be scientists to get in touch with new subjects and bring new ideas to the attention of senior researchers. To highlight and promote the work of the youngest participants, we awarded ex aequo Dr. Chiara Damiani and Dr. Marcello Budroni for thebestoralpresentation;theircontributionswereselectedasfullpapersandappearin this volume in the sections “Modelling and Simulation of Artificial and Biological VI Preface Systems” (C. Damiani et al.: “Linking Alterations in Metabolic Fluxes with Shifts in Metabolite Levels by Means of Kinetic Modeling”) and “Evolutionary Computation andGeneticAlgorithms”(M.Budronietal.:“Scale-Free NetworksoutofMultifractal Chaos”). Aseditors,wewishtoexpressgratitudetoalltheattendeesoftheconferenceandto the authors who spent time and effort to contribute to this volume. We also acknowledge the precious work of the reviewers and of the members of the Program Committee.Specialthanks,finally,totheinvitedspeakersfortheirveryinterestingand inspiringtalks:GaborVattayfromEötvösLorándUniversity(Hungary),NicolaSegata from the University of Trento (Italy), Raffaele Giancarlo from the University of Palermo(Italy),OlliYli-HarjafromTampereUniversityofTechnology(Finland),and Pier Luigi Gentili from University of Perugia (Italy). The 17 papers presented were thoroughly reviewed and selected from 54 submis- sions. They cover the following topics: evolutionary computation, bioinspired algo- rithms, genetic algorithms, bioinformatics and computational biology, modelling and simulationofartificialandbiologicalsystems,complexsystems,syntheticandsystems biology,systemschemistry,andtheyrepresentthemostinterestingcontributionstothe 2016 edition of WIVACE.
