EuroGP 2011
(call for papers)
***********************************

14th European Conference on Genetic Programming
27-29 April 2010, Torino - Italy
www.evostar.org

Submission deadline:
November 22, 2010

EuroGP is the premier annual conference on Genetic Programming. EuroGP
is always a very enjoyable event, held together with the other main
european events on Evolutionary Computation, collectively designated as
EvoStar (Evo*). EvoStar 2011 takes place in Torino, Italy, which
celebrates the 150th anniversary of its unification. Torino, as the
first Italian capital, will be the center of all the celebrations, and
an ideal location to host international events.

EuroGP 2011 seeks high quality papers on topics strongly related to the
evolution of computer programs, including but not limited to:
* Theoretical developments;
* Empirical studies of GP performance and behaviour;
* Algorithms, representations and operators;
* Applications of GP to real-life problems;
* Hybrid architectures including GP components;
* Unconventional evolvable computation;
* Evolutionary design;
* Evolutionary robotics;
* Grammar-based GP;
* Evolvable hardware;
* Linear GP;
* Self-reproducing programs;
* Evolution of tree or graph structures;
* Evolution of various classes of automata or machine (e.g. cellular
automata, finite state machines, pushdown automata, Turing machines);
* Object-oriented GP.

The submissions will be peer reviewed by at least three members of the
program committee. The reviewing process will be double-blind, so please
omit information about the authors in the submitted paper. Accepted
papers will be presented orally or as posters at the conference and will
be published by Springer in the LNCS series. The papers which receive
the best reviews will be nominated for the Best Paper Award. Authors
of selected papers will be invited to submit extended descriptions of
their work to the Springer journal Genetic Programming and Evolvable
Machines (http://www.springer.com/10710).
