** Call for Papers **

The GECCO 2015 Program Committee invites the submission of technical
papers describing your best work in genetic and evolutionary
computation. Abstracts need to be submitted by January 21st, 2015. Full
papers are due by the *NON-EXTENSIBLE* deadline of February 4th, 2015.
Detailed submission instructions can be found at
http://www.sigevo.org/gecco-2015.

Each paper submitted to GECCO will be rigorously evaluated in a
double-blind review process. The evaluation is on a per-track basis,
ensuring high interest and expertise of the reviewers. Review criteria
include significance of the work, technical soundness, novelty, clarity,
writing quality, and sufficiency of information to permit replication,
if applicable. All accepted papers will be published in the ACM Digital
Library.

GECCO allows submission of material that is substantially similar to a
paper being submitted contemporaneously for review by another
conference. However, if the submitted paper is accepted by GECCO, the
authors agree that substantially the same material will not be published
by another conference. Material may later be revised and submitted to a
journal, if permitted by the journal.

Researchers are 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.

By submitting a paper, the author(s) agree that, if their paper is
accepted, they will:
* Submit a final, revised, camera-ready version to the publisher on or
before the camera ready deadline
* Register at least one author to attend the conference on or before the
advance registration deadline
* Attend the conference (at least one author)
* Present the accepted paper at the conference
