Swarm and Evolutionary Computation - 2

The document announces the launch of a new peer-reviewed journal called Swarm and Evolutionary Computation in early 2011. The journal will focus on publishing research involving swarm intelligence algorithms, evolutionary computing methods, and their hybridizations for tackling complex optimization problems. It will cover theoretical, experimental, and applied aspects of these nature-inspired algorithms applied to various domains like engineering, science, business, and more. Topics of interest include genetic algorithms, particle swarm optimization, ant colony optimization, and hybrid methods combining multiple algorithms.

New Journal arriving in 2011:

Swarm and Evolutionary Computation

Papers now welcomed


To tackle complex real world problems, scientists have been looking into natural processes and creatures both as model and metaphor for years. Optimization is at the heart of many natural processes including Darwinian evolution, social group behavior and foraging strategies. Over the last few decades, there has been remarkable growth in the field of nature-inspired search and optimization algorithms. Currently these techniques are applied to a variety of problems, ranging from scientific research to industry and commerce. Two main families of algorithms that primarily constitute this field today are the evolutionary computing methods and the swarm intelligence algorithms. Although both families of algorithms are generally dedicated towards solving search and optimization problems, they are certainly not equivalent, and very often are not a special case of the other. Whilst each has its own distinguishing features, these two families reinforce each others performance resulting in powerful hybrid algorithms capable of solving many intractable search and optimization problems. Swarm and Evolutionary Computation is the first peer-reviewed publication of its kind that aims at reporting the most recent research and developments in the area of nature-inspired intelligent computation based on the principles of swarm and evolutionary algorithms. It will publish advanced, innovative, and interdisciplinary research involving the theoretical, experimental, and practical aspects of the two paradigms and their hybridizations.

1st issue of the journal is expected in early 2011.
