* ant colony optimization 
* swarm intelligence 
* biological applications 
* evolutionary robotics  
* coevolution  
* artificial immune systems 


==Submissions==
All papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library. For any paper to be accepted into the ACM Digital Library, it must be submitted in an electronic format which conforms to ACM SIG formats using official ACM templates. Moreover, papers must adhere to ACM copy-editing rules. Finally, there are specifications of page and word limits imposed by GECCO. This information is detailed in the sections below.

Papers must be submitted through the paper submission website.<br>

The Full and Poster-only papers submitted to GECCO will be rigorously reviewed in a double-blind review process and they should be ANONYMIZED. This means that they should NOT contain any element that may reveal the identity of their authors. This includes author names, affiliations, and acknowledgments. Moreover, any references to any of the author's own work should be made as if the work belonged to someone else.
