Abstracts of talks will be refereed by the committee and a program drawn up on the basis of those accepted. Papers will be bound and distributed to the participants at the beginning of the workshop. Contributions will be welcomed from researchers visiting the UK. Subjects: Genetic Algorithms, Classifier Systems, Genetic Programming, Evolutionary Strategies, Evolutionary Programming. Papers: Acceptance will be on the basis of abstracts of a maximum 1000 words. Places will be available for those submitting abstracts. Others who wish to attend should submit a summary of interests. Timetable: 15th Jan 1994: Last date for submission of abstracts 15th Feb 1994: Notification of accepted abstracts 15th Mar 1994: Full papers due. Please send notification of interest, submissions, and general correspondence to workshop chair, Terry Fogarty. email: tc_fogar@pat.uwe.ac.uk post: Dr Terence C.

Costs for accommodation (B + B), lunches outwith the duration of the workshop, and dinners, are: B + B 19.50 + VAT = 22.90 lunch 5.95 + VAT = 7.00 Dinner 8.75 + VAT = 10.30 ============================================================================== The Workshop on Evolutionary Computation is one of a group of six workshops and two tutorials occuring at Leeds University during April 11th- 13th 1994, organised by the Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and Simulation of Behaviiur (AISB). The fact that many workshops are being held concurrently in the same place will provide an opportunity for attendees at one workshop to meet with those from other workshops during breaks and in the evenings. In some instances, it is also possible for attendees to attend more than one event. General information on the workshop series may be addressed to the Series Organisers: Dr. Hyacinth S.
