Scope of the Conference
The International Workshop on Artificial Life and Evolutionary Computation aims at bringing together researchers working in Artificial Life (ALife) and Evolutionary Computation to present and share their research in a multidisciplinary context. The workshop provides a forum for the discussion of new research directions and applications in these fields, where different disciplines can effectively meet. In particular, the workshop brings together computer scientists, mathematicians, biologists, psychologists, and cognitive scientists to discuss issues related to the original of life, evolution and adaption, collective and social behaviours and other topics related to the development of technological solutions inspired by biological principles. The workshop is based on singe-track sessions, with oral and poster presentations. The workshop is structured using a format specifically though to allow doctoral students and early career researchers to meet in order to discuss their ideas and to disseminate their work in a collaborative and constructive environment.
