etc).
* Memetic algorithms, multi-objective optimization, constraint
handling, dynamic optimization, etc.
* Machine Learning and hybridization with other soft computing
techniques.

The 2011 edition will continue the tradition which has been
progressively established during its previous editions:
Quality: With a rigorous selection by a high profile International
Program Committee, the selected papers (12 pages, LNCS format) will
be published by Springer (like for all previous editions) in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science serie.
Comfort: The single session formula of 30mn presentations eases
fruitful exchanges between the authors and participants.
Best value: As a non-profit conference, only minimal conference fees
are required to cover conference facilities, conference proceedings,
three served launches, coffee breaks and the conference banquet
dinner (250€ for students and 350€ for other academic participants).
