Biological Computing
This open access book comprehensively introduces biocomputing, focusing on its foundational theories, experimental operations, and computational models. Biocomputing represents an innovative computational paradigm that leverages biomolecules as a carrier for processing and storing information. As a core enabler of human progress, computational tools serve as critical benchmarks of societal advancement and are key drivers of technological innovation. While electronic computers currently dominate as the primary instruments for information processing, their underlying manufacturing technologies are approaching physical and practical limits. This has prompted the search for alternative computational models and tools to meet the demands of future advancements. Over recent decades, scientists have explored various fields to develop novel computational frameworks. These efforts have led to the emergence of groundbreaking paradigms, such as artificial neural networks inspired by brain-like information processing, evolutionary computing based on genetic mechanisms, biocomputing utilizing the unique properties of biomolecules, quantum computing exploiting quantum phenomena, and optical computing leveraging the properties of light. Designed as an essential resource for readers interested in the principles and applications of biocomputing, this book establishes a foundational understanding of the subject while serving as a bridge to more advanced theoretical and practical exploration. A basic knowledge of molecular biology is recommended for readers to engage with the material fully. The translation was done using artificial intelligence. Subsequently, a human revision was done primarily in terms of content.

10th Anniversary of Computation-Computational Heat and Mass Transfer (ICCHMT 2023)
This Special Issue of Computation presents 23 papers selected from the 14th International Conference on Computational Heat and Mass Transfer (ICCHMT2023), which was held in D羹sseldorf, Germany, 4-8 September 2023, and organized by the D羹sseldorf University of Applied Sciences. The ICCHMT2023 chairs were Prof. Dr. Ali Cemal Benim (Local Chair), Prof. Dr. Rachid Bennacer (Co-Chair), Prof. Abdulmajeed Mohamad (Founding Chair), Prof. Dr. Pawel Ocloń (Co-Chair), Prof. Dr. Sang-Ho Suh (Co-Chair), and Prof. Dr. Jan Taler (Co-Chair). The ICCHMT2023 had a great resonance in the technical and scientific communities all over the world. A total of 239 papers from more than 40 countries were presented at the conference. The selected 23 papers for the current Special Issue were then prepared in an extended form and subjected to a separate, regular peer review process steered by the editorial office of Computation.
Verification, Validation, and Uncertainty Quantification in Scientific Computing
Computational Mechanics and Applied Mathematics
Computational Structural Mechanics and Mathematics have always made a very powerful alliance, and the rapid advances in computer science have further strenghthened them in the form of novel mathematical models and the accompanying computational algorithms. However, despite the enormous progress already made, there is still room for continuous improvement. This reprint is clear proof of such progress. It namely contains 10 up-to-date articles accepted after strict reviews published in the Special Issue "Computational Mechanics and Applied Mathematics" of the MDPI Mathematics journal, covering a wide range of themes connected to this very topical subject. Therefore, it is our hope that this reprint, which mainly addresses the fundamental relationships between mechanics and mathematics and their applications, will be engaging and useful for various experts involved in any of both of these important research areas whose mutual goal is to ensure the sustainable safety of structures and other kinds of engineering objects.
