*** Paper submission deadline: December 1, 2000 *** The 2001 Congress on Evolutionary Computation will bring together researchers to exchange ideas and report recent progress in evolutionary computation and its application to real-world problems. CEC2001 is jointly sponsored by the IEEE Neural Networks Council, the Evolutionary Programming Society (EPS), and the Institution of Electrical Engineers (IEE). Building on its previous success in 1999 and 2000, CEC aims to be the most inclusive EC conference in the field. This is reflected in the considerable efforts put together by its organising committee, spanning groupings from around the globe. Please note the web pages on http://cec2001.kaist.ac.kr/ for details about submissions and other activities. The deadline for submitting regular papers is December 1, 2000. Looking forward to your participation.
