DEADLINE:
Monday, May 28, 2001
Papers
describing late-breaking developments in the
field of genetic and evolutionary computation
are being solicited for inclusion in a special
paper-bound book to
be distributed to all attendees of the Genetic
and Evolutionary Computation 2001 Conference
(GECCO-2001) to be held on July 7 - 11 (Saturday-Wednesday),
2001 at the Holiday Inn Golden Gateway, San
Francisco, California, USA. This special book
is distinct from the conference proceedings.
The
purpose of late-breaking papers is to provide
conference attendees with information about
research that was initiated, enhanced, improved,
or completed after the original paper submission
deadline in January, 2001.
We have had an outstanding increase in regular
paper submissions in 2001, so the conference
schedule will be tight, but we currently plan
that late-breaking papers will be presented
in special sessions held during GECCO-2001,
as they were in 2000, so long as space and time
permit (otherwise, poster presentation will
be required). The decision about mode of presentation
will be announced prior to the May 28 deadline.
