Book excerpt: This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th International Conference on Unconventional Computation, UC 2007, held in Kingston, Canada, in August 2007. The 17 revised full papers presented together with 4 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected for inclusion in the book. All current aspects of unconventional computation are addressed - theory as well as experiments and applications. Typical topics are: natural computing including quantum, cellular, molecular, neural and evolutionary computing; chaos and dynamical systems based computing; and various proposals for computations that go beyond the Turing model.
