META 2014 - 2014 International Conference on Metaheuristics and Nature Inspired Computing

The Conference will be an exchange space thanks to the sessions of the research works presentations and also will integrate tutorials and a vocational training of metaheuristics and nature inspired computing.
The scope of the META’2014 conference includes, but is not limited to:
Local search, tabu search, simulated annealing, VNS, ILS, …
Evolutionary algorithms, swarm optimization, scatter search, …
Emergent nature inspired algorithms: quantum computing, artificial immune systems, bee colony, DNA computing, …
Parallel metaheuristics
Hybrid methods with metaheuristics, machine learning, game theory, mathematical programming, constraint programming, co-evolutionary, …
Application to: logistics and transportation, telecommunications, scheduling, data mining, engineering design, bioinformatics, …
Theory of metaheuristics, landscape analysis, convergence, problem difficulty, very large neighbourhoods, …
Application to multi-objective optimization
Application in dynamic optimization, problems with uncertainty,bi-level optimization, …
