evostar 2012 Final Call for Papers

evostar - the main european events on evolutionary computation
eurogp, evocop, evobio, evomusart and evoapplications
11-13 april 2012 - malaga, spain
http://www.evostar.org



ABOUT EVO*
The evo* event comprises the premier co-located conferences in the field of Evolutionary Computing: eurogp, evocop, evobio, evomusart and evoapplications. In 2012, the evo* will take place at the Malaga, Spain.

Featuring the latest in theoretical and applied research, evo* topics include recent genetic programming challenges, evolutionary and other meta-heuristic approaches for combinatorial optimization, evolutionary algorithms, machine learning and data mining techniques in the biosciences, in numerical optimization, in music and art domains, in image analysis and signal processing, in hardware optimization and in a wide range of applications to scientific, industrial, financial and other real-world problems.

The proceedings will be published by Springer Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series.

EVO* SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS

Submissions must be original and not published elsewhere. The submissions will be peer reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. The authors of accepted papers will have to improve their paper on the basis of the reviewers' comments and will be asked to send a camera ready version of their manuscripts. At least one author of each accepted work has to register for the conference and attend the conference and present the work.

The reviewing process will be double-blind, please omit information about the authors in the submitted paper. Submit your manuscript in Springer LNCS format. The submission deadline is 7 december 2011. The other submission details are conference specific. Please follow the instructions and links bellow.
