* CONTEXT *

--------------------------------------------------------------

The 2016 IEEE Conference on Evolving and Adaptive Intelligent Systems (2016
IEEE EAIS) will be held in Natal (Brazil), a beautiful city located at the
Brazil's northeast coast. It is the Brazilian closest capital to/from Europe
and Africa. Natal has several tourist attractions and is famous for its
natural beauty, for its historical monuments and buildings and for its
gorgeous beaches. The city also boasts the second largest urban park in
Brazil and was one of the host cities of the 2014 FIFA World Cup.

2016 IEEE EAIS will provide a friendly atmosphere and will be a leading
international forum focusing on the discussion of recent advances, the
exchange of recent innovations and the outline of open important future
challenges in the area of Evolving and Adaptive Intelligent Systems.

Over the past decade, this area has emerged to play an important role on a
broad international level in today's real-world applications, especially
those ones with high complexity and dynamics change. Its embedded modelling
and learning methodologies are able to cope with real-time demands, changing
operation conditions, varying environmental influences, human behaviors,
knowledge expansion scenarios and drifts in online data streams.

2016 IEEE EAIS is organized by the IEEE Technical Committee on Evolving and
Adaptive Intelligent Systems, SMC Society. 2016 IEEE EAIS will be held for
the first time in Latin America, however, the conference series has a
history starting in 2006 in Lake District (England). It was held after that
in Witten-Bommerholz (Germany), Nashville (USA), Leicester (England), Paris
(France), Madrid (Spain), Singapore, Linz (Austria) and Douai (France).
Authors of selected papers will be invited to submit extended versions for
possible inclusion in a special issue of the Journal Evolving Systems
(Springer).
