CALL FOR PAPERS
GECCO-2001
************
Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference
(A recombination of the Sixth Annual Genetic Programming Conference (GP-2001)
-----------------------------------------------------
and the International Conference on Genetic Algorithms (ICGA-2001))
----------------------------------------------------------
Co-Sponsored by AAAI (American Association for Artificial Intelligence)
July 7-11, 2001 (Saturday - Wednesday)
San Francisco, California USA
One Conference: Many "Mini-Conferences":
GECCO = GP + GA + ES + EP + EH + ER + DNA + CS + RWA + AAA + ACO + ...
See the latest in YOUR favorite branch of Evolutionary Computation,
AND explore developments in other, related tracks. The Genetic and
Evolutionary Computation Conference (GECCO-2001) will present the
latest high-quality results in the growing field of genetic and
evolutionary computation. Topics include, but are not limited to,
genetic algorithms (GA); genetic programming (GP); evolution
strategies (ES); evolutionary programming (EP); evolvable hardware
(EH); evolutionary robotics (ER); real-world applications (RWA);
classifier systems (CS); DNA and molecular computing (DNA); artificial
life, adaptive behavior and agents (AAA); ant colony optimization
(ACO); optimal design of engineered structures; methodology, pedagogy,
and philosophy (MPP); genetic scheduling and routing (GS); and other
areas to be announced.
Papers are now invited (see further information below), with
manuscripts to be received for review no later than January 24, 2001.
Each paper submitted to GECCO will be rigorously reviewed, in a blind
review process, by one of at least seven separate and independent
program committees specializing in various aspects of genetic and
evolutionary computation. These committees make their own final
decisions on submitted papers for their areas, subject only to
conference-wide space limitations and procedures.
STUDENT TRAVEL GRANTS
Travel grants to assist graduate students in meeting the expenses of
attending GECCO to present a paper will be available (see web site for
details).
WORKSHOPS
Proposals for Birds-of-a-Feather Workshops for GECCO-2001 are now
being solicited. In addition to a Graduate Student Workshop, many
other workshops on a variety of EC-related topics will be held during
GECCO-2001, on Saturday, July 7. See the web pages
http://www.isgec.org/GECCO-2001/workshops or contact the Workshops Chair,
Soraya Rana-Stevens, sstevens at bbn.com, for the latest list of topics
or for information on submitting a proposal to organize a workshop.
Workshops already in planning include Optimal Scheduling and Routing,
Optimal Design of Engineered Structures, and the Fourth International
Workshop on Learning Classifier Systems.
TUTORIALS
Twenty-eight tutorials are being planned, for presentation on Sunday,
July 8, 2001 (see listing below and updates on
http://www.isgec.org/GECCO-2001 ).

HOW TO SUBMIT A PAPER TO THE GECCO CONFERENCE
The deadline for ARRIVAL at the physical address below of the eight
(8) paper copies of each submitted paper is WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 24,
2001. The address is GECCO-2001, c/o AAAI, 445 Burgess Drive, Menlo
Park, CA 94025, USA. Phone 650-328-3123.
Submitted papers are to be in single-spaced, 10-point type on 8-1/2" x
11" OR A4 paper with 1" margins at top and 3/4" margin at left, right,
and bottom, and are a maximum of eight (8) pages. Papers may not be
submitted by email or fax. Details regarding the formatting and
content of the papers are contained at the web site,
www.isgec.org/GECCO-2001.
Review criteria will include significance of the work, novelty, clarity,
writing quality, and sufficiency of information to permit replication (if
applicable).
The first-named author (or other corresponding author designated by
the authors when submitting) will be notified of acceptance or
rejection (on approximately the first week of March, 2001). It is
preferred (but not required) that the format of submitted papers
roughly follow the required format for final camera-ready papers. The
required style for the final camera-ready papers is posted on the
GECCO web page and is similar to that of GECCO-2000.
