CPS 2013 - Special Session on Cooperative Problem Solving at 5th International Conference on Computational Collective Intelligence Technologies and Applications

The aim of the special session on Cooperative Problem Solving is to bring together researchers interested in various problem solving techniques based on collective computational intelligence to share their experience, present current research results and discuss advanced techniques. Topics of submitted papers should focus on methods and applications where the tools and techniques exploiting collective computational intelligence are used to enhance, support or replace traditional approaches to solving optimization problems. In particular, we encourage papers reporting on the real-life applications of the cooperative problem solving.
