2014 ACM Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO 2014)
July 12-16, 2014, Vancouver, BC, Canada
http://www.sigevo.org/gecco-2014

The ACM GECCO 2014 Program Committee invites the submission of technical
papers describing your best work in genetic and evolutionary computation.
Abstracts need to be submitted by January 15, 2014. Full papers are due by the
non-extensible deadline of January 29, 2014. All accepted papers will be
published in the ACM Digital Library. Detailed submission instructions will be
made available soon at http://www.sigevo.org/gecco-2014.

Researchers are also invited to submit abstracts of their work recently
published in top-tier conferences and journals to the new Hot Off the Press
track. Contributions will be selected based on quality and interest to the
GECCO community.
