In the last few years, bio-inspired solutions have attracted the attention of the scientific community. Several world-renowned institutions have sponsored and created laboratories in order to understand the forms, functions and behavior of living organisms. Some methods can be highlighted in the search for geometric representation of the shapes found in the nature, the fractal geometry, the polar geometry, and the superformula of Gielis. This chapter is focusing on bio-inspired microstrip antennas, especially on leafshaped antennas from the Gielis superformula that open a vast research field for more compact antennas with low visual impact.

This paper considers the composition of a DIDS (Distributed Intrusion Detection System) by integrating heterogeneous IDSs (Intrusion Detection Systems). A Grid middleware is used for this integration. In addition, an architecture for this integration is proposed and validated through simulation.
