Aims & Scope

Genetic Programming and Evolvable Machines is a journal dedicated to the automatic evolution of software and hardware. Reports innovative and significant progress in adaptive computation and engineering. Features both theoretical and application papers. Covers hardware implementations, artificial life, and emergent computation techniques. Explores related topics such as evolutionary algorithms with variable-size genomes and alternate methods of program induction. Examines systems development approaches based on embryology, morphogenesis, or other techniques inspired by adaptive natural systems.
