Session details: Late breaking abstracts workshop

Two-page abstracts describing late-breaking developments in the field of genetic and evolutionary computation have been solicited for the Late-Breaking Abstracts (LBA) Workshop at GECCO 2012. As in previous years, the LBA Workshop has received an overwhelming response from the research community. Out of 28 submitted abstracts, 24 abstracts have finally been accepted after a brief, but nevertheless careful, examination of the workshop chairs. We would like to express our sincere thanks to all authors who submitted their abstracts. The accepted abstracts span a wide range of GECCO-related topics such as evolutionary game theory, evolutionary robotics and combinatorial as well as real-value optimization. We have tried our best to cluster the accepted abstracts into meaningful sessions, and genuinely hope you enjoy the Workshop and find the GECCO 2012 Proceedings of use for your work now and your future projects and activities.
