	    The Third Annual Conference on Evolutionary Programming
				       
				CALL FOR PAPERS
				       
			     February 24-25, 1994
			     San Diego, California
				       
Evolutionary programming is a stochastic optimization technique that can be
used to address various optimization problems. Papers regarding the theory and
application of evolutionary programming to complex problem solving and
solicited. Topics include, but are not limited to:

	automatic control		neural network training and design
	system identification		adaptive representation
	forecasting			robotics
	combinatorial optimization	pattern recognition

and the relationship between evolutionary programming and other optimization
methods. On or before June 30, 1993, prospective authors should submit a
100-250 word abstract and three page extended summary of the proposed paper to
the Technical Program Chairman:

			       Lawrence J. Fogel
