CFP: EVOApplications 2018 - Parma, 4-6 April 2018
*************************************************
****** PLEASE NOTICE ******
****** DEADLINE EXTENDED TO NOVEMBER 10 ******
*************************************************
EvoApplications, the European Conference on the Applications of
Evolutionary Computation brings together researchers in a variety of
areas of application of Evolutionary Computation and other
Nature-inspired techniques.
**********************************************************************
Submission Deadline: 10 November 2017, up to 16 pages Springer LNCS
**********************************************************************
EvoApplications' 21st edition will be held as part of the EvoStar 2018
event in Parma, Italy, 4-6 April 2018, and co-located within
EvoStar(http://www.evostar.org) with three related conferences:
EuroGP, EvoCOP, and EvoMUSART.
In 2018, Evostar and PPSN, conveniently located in April and
September, will be the two most relevant general conferences on
Evolutionary Computation held in Europe.
*Publication*
EvoApplications is accepting two kinds of submission: full papers and
short papers. Full papers require novel and complete research work and
have a limit of 16 pages. Short papers should present complete
research or interesting preliminary results and have a limit of 8
pages. Both types of submission will undergo the same double-blind
review process and all accepted papers will be included in the LNCS
proceedings. Based on reviewers’ assessment, accepted full papers
will be presented as full-length talks, and authors of accepted short
papers will present a short talk as well as present a poster. All
authors of accepted papers will be given the opportunity to further
disseminate their work in poster sessions.
Authors of selected publications will be invited to submit an extended
version of their work to Springer's Genetic Programming and Evolvable
Machines (GPEM, impact factor: 1.514, fast-track review process).
*The Venue*
Parma is an elegant city with the refined atmosphere of a "petite
capitale". It is rich in cultural treasures and with its attractive
architecture, shops, and restaurants, it is very welcoming. Parma is a
center of gastronomic heritage, famous for Parma ham and Parmigiano
Reggiano cheese. The conference will be held in the main University
building, in the heart of the town.
*Tracks*
EvoApplications 2018 is composed of 14 tracks, each focusing on an
area of application of genetic and evolutionary computation and other
related Computational Intelligence fields. The following tracks will
be running in 2018. Papers on applications of Evolutionary
Computation and related methods to other fields are also welcome and
will be presented within a "General" track.
