GEM 2013 - The 2013 International Conference on Genetic and Evolutionary Methods (GEM'13)

You are invited to submit a full paper for consideration. All accepted papers will be published in printed conference books/proceedings (they will also be available on the web). The proceedings will be processed for indexing into science citation databases that track citation frequency/data for each paper. These science citation databases include: Inspec / IET / The Institute for Engineering and Technology, CiteSeerX citation index, Google Scholar, Microsoft Academic Search, and other science databases. Like prior years, extended versions of selected papers (about 40%) will appear in journals and edited research books (publishers include: Springer, Elsevier, ...).
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
Genetic programming
Genetic algorithms
Hybrid genetic / memetic algorithms
Artificial life
Genetic benchmarks and software packages
Optimization methodologies
Swarm intelligence and optimization
Artificial immune systems
Evolutionary programming
