The Conference

EuroGP is the premier annual conferenceon Genetic Programming, the oldest and theonly meeting worldwide devoted specificallyto this branch of evolutionary computation.It is always a very enjoyable event attract-ing participants from all continents, offeringexcellent opportunities for networking, infor-mal contact, exchange of ideas and discus-sions with fellow researchers, in a friendlyand relaxed environment.High quality papers describing new originalresearch are sought on topics strongly re-lated to the evolution of computer programs,ranging from theoretical work to innovativeapplications. The conference will feature amixture of oral presentations and poster ses-sions. In 2013, the euroGP acceptance ratewas 49% (38% for oral presentations).

Important Dates:

Submission: 1 November 2013Conference: 23-25 April 2014

Venue

Granada is located in the southern-most region of Spain, Andalusia,at the foot of the Sierra NevadaMountains. It is home to the fa-mous Alhambra, a vast complex of

fortresses, rich palaces and lush gardens, andone of the top tourist attractions in Spain.Other attractions include the second biggestCathedral in Spain, and UNESCO WorldHeritage ancient Muslim neighbourhoods.The region of Granada is also well known forits free tapas (starters), which you get whenyou order a drink. They are famously large,and with a huge selection, you will be spoiledfor choice. Come and enjoy!

Publication

Submissions will be peer-reviewed by a care-fully chosen program committee. Acceptedpapers must be presented at the conference,and will be published by Springer Verlagin the Lecture Notes in Computer Science(LNCS) series, as they have been for the last16 years.
