ALEA
Artificial Life and Evolutionary Algorithms
ALEA'2009 is a thematic track of EPIA 2009, the portuguese conference in Artificial Intelligence, held in Aveiro, Portugal. This track is specifically dedicated both to the theory and application of Artificial Life (ALife) and Evolutionary Algorithms (EA). ALife and EA solutions have been gaining popularity in solving complex problems of different industrial, economical, and scientific domains. This thematic track is a good opportunity to gather researchers to present their latest research and to discuss current developments and applications. The format of the meeting will be designed to stimulate close interaction between members of these scientific communities. ALEA'2009 has the purpose of thriving to develop this research area in Portugal, through discussion among researchers and outstanding international scientists.
The thematic track will consist of an invited talk, oral presentations, panel, demonstration session (approval pending) and poster sessions and ample time for organised discussion. The best (the number is decided by APPIA Chairs) accepted papers will appear in the proceedings published by Springer in the LNAI series. The remaining accepted papers and posters will be published in a local edition, both in hard-copy, CD-ROM and on the web.
Please download and distribute the call for papers (pdf format) to those potentially interested.
