Proceedings of the Seventh International Conference on Simulation of Adaptive 
Behavior
edited by Bridget Hallam, Dario Floreano, John Hallam, Gillian Hayes, and 
Jean-Arcady Meyer

The Simulation of Adaptive Behavior Conference brings together researchers 
from ethology, psychology, ecology, artificial intelligence, artificial life, 
robotics, computer science, engineering, and related fields to further 
understanding of the behaviors and underlying mechanisms that allow 
adaptation and survival in uncertain environments. The work presented focuses 
on robotic and computational experimentation with well-defined models that 
help to characterize and compare alternative organizational principles or 
architectures underlying adaptive behavior in both natural animals and 
synthetic animats.

Bridget Hallam is Guest Researcher at the University of Southern Denmark. 
Dario Floreano is Professor of Evolutionary and Adaptive Systems at the Swiss 
Federal Institute of Technology. John Hallam and Gillian Hayes are Senior 
Lecturers in the Institute of Perception, Action, and Behavior at the 
University of Edinburgh. Hallam is also Guest Professor at the University of 
Southern Denmark. Jean-Arcady Meyer is Director of the AnimatLab at the 
Labortatoire d'Informatique de Paris 6.
