SUBMITTING
PAPERS
|
The submission deadline for regular papers has
passed.
You
can still send your contribution as a Late
Breaking Paper or, if the paper describes
your experiences on applying EC in industry,
to the Evolutionary Computation
in Industry track.
Best Application papers from the RWA Track will
be invited to submit a revised and enhanced
version of the paper to the 'Applied Soft Computing'
Journal. The papers will be reviewed on a 'fast
track' basis. The Journal website: www.elsevier.com/locate/asoc/

GECCO 2002 REVIEWER REVIEW
FORM
The purpose of this form is to give authors the opportunity
to comment on the quality of the reviews they received for
their submissions to GECCO 2002. |
HOW
TO SUBMIT A PAPER TO THE GECCO CONFERENCE:
The
deadline for ARRIVAL at the physical address below of the eight(8)
paper copies of each submitted paper is WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 23,2002.
The address is GECCO-2002, c/o AAAI, 445 Burgess Drive, MenloPark,
CA 94025, USA. Phone 650-328-3123.
Submitted papers are to be in single-spaced, 10-point type on
8-1/2" x11" OR A4 paper with 1" margins at top
and 3/4" margin at left, right,and bottom, and are a maximum
of eight (8) pages. Papers may not besubmitted by email or fax.
This
year the review process is "double blind,"meaning
that reviewers should not be able to infer the identities of
the authors of the papers that they are reviewing (and, of course,
that authors will not know the identities of their reviewers).
Author names and affiliations must not appear on the normal
"page 1" of submitted papers, but should appear instead
on a separate first page to be removed by AAAI for the blind
review process.
Each
paper MUST include these 9 items:
1) - 6) on a single cover page NOT sent to reviewers. The next
page begins a maximum total of eight (8) pages, containing,
IN THIS ORDER: items 1) & 2) (repeated) and enough BLANK
lines left for items 3) - 6); then items 7) - 9):
|
-
the
paper's category, chosen from one of the following alternatives:
Genetic Algorithms;
Genetic Programming;
Evolvable Hardware;
Learning Classifier Systems;
Evolution Strategies;
Evolutionary Programming;
DNA and Molecular Computing;
Real-World Applications;
Artificial Life, Adaptive Behavior, Agents and Ant Colony
Optimization;
Evolutionary Robotics;
Evolutionary scheduling and routing;
Methodology, Pedagogy, and Philosophy;
Search Based Software Engineering
and such other categories as may be subsequently added
on this web site.
- title
of paper,
- author
name(s),
- author
physical address(es),
- author
e-mail address(es),
- author
phone number(s),
- a
50-200-word abstract of the paper (at beginning of paper),
- the
text of the paper (including all figures, tables, acknowledgments,
and appendices, if any), and
- references
(cited).
Review
criteria will include significance of the work, novelty,
clarity, writing quality, and sufficiency of information
to permit replication (if applicable). The first-named author
(or other corresponding author designated by the authors
when submitting) will be notified of acceptance or rejection
(on approximately the first week of March 2002). It is preferred
(but not required) that the format of submitted papers roughly
follow the required format for final camera-ready papers.
See above
for the required style for the final camera-ready papers,
which is identical to that of GECCO-2001.
|
Different numbers of pages may be allocated to accepted
papers based on the policies of the various separate program
tracks of the conference. The deadline
for final camera-ready version of accepted papers will
be announced (and will be approximately the first week
of April, 2002). The conference proceedings will be published
in book form distributed at the conference.
By submitting a paper, the author(s) agree that, if their
paper is accepted, they will submit a final revised camera-ready
version by the deadline for camera-ready papers (in early
April, 2002), they will register at least one author by
the deadline for camera-ready papers, and at least one
author will attend and present the accepted paper at the
conference.
The
material in papers must represent substantially new work
that has not been previously published by conferences, journals,
or edited books in the evolutionary computation field.
GECCO
permits a paper to be submitted that is substantially similar
to a paper being contemporaneously submitted for review
in another conference; however, if the submitted paper is
accepted by the GECCO conference, the authors agree that
substantially the same material will not be published by
another conference in the evolutionary computation field.
(Material may be later revised and submitted to a journal
if permitted by the journal involved.).
