This book contains a selection of papers presented at a workshop on evolutionary computing sponsored by the Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and Simulation of Behaviour, AISB, at the University of Sussex in Brighton, UK, in April 1996.
The 22 revised full papers included in the book, together with one invited contribution, were carefully reviewed by the program committee. Twelve contributions investigate applications of evolutionary computing in various areas, such as learning, scheduling, searching, genetic programming, image processing, and robotics. Eleven papers are...

This volume is based on the Workshop on Evolutionary Computing held in Sheffield, U.K., in April 1995 under the sponsorship of the Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and Simulation of Behavior (AISB).
The 18 full papers presented were selected during a post-workshop refereeing meeting and chosen from 32 submissions for the workshop.
The papers are organized in sections on evolutionary computing theory and techniques, timetabling, routing and scheduling, optimization, signal processing and control, and genetic programming. The collection of papers has a certain bias towards...
