Natural computing

Natural computing is a type of computer science that tries to find ways to make computers think, solve problems, and act like living things. To do this, natural computing looks to nature for help. Scientists in this field study different creatures like animals, plants, and insects, so that they can understand how these things use their environment and interact with each other. By studying nature, scientists can develop computer models that mimic how these creatures act and solve problems. That way, these computer models can help scientists solve difficult problems in their own research.
