Special Issue on Evolutionary Computation in Combinatorial Optimization
OBJECTIVES:
In this special issue we invite contributions in both theoretical development and applications of hierarchical optimization in areas of engineering and applied science. We expect this special issue to be a collection of high quality research contributions and advances in application of evolutionary computation and methods to combinatorial optimization problems.

TOPICS:
Topics include but are not limited to:
• Applications of metaheuristics to combinatorial optimization problems
• Novel application domains for metaheuristic optimisation methods
• Variation operators for stochastic search methods
• Constraint-handling techniques
• Hybrid methods and hybridization techniques
• Parallelization
• Comparisons between different (also exact) techniques
• Automated tuning of metaheuristics using machine learning, evolutionary and other approaches
• Evolutionary multi-objective and dynamic optimization
• Computational complexity
• Constraint satisfaction
• Crew scheduling
• Cutting and packing
• Exact and approximation algorithms
• Frequency assignment
• Graphs
• Heuristic and Meta-heuristic methods
• Integer programming
• Network design
• Production and logistics scheduling
• Timetabling
• Vehicle routing and scheduling

SUBMISSION INFORMATION:
The manuscripts should be submitted to one of the issue Guest Editors with a covering letter. It is recommended to send the pdf version of the paper. All manuscripts will be subject to peer review. If finally accepted, the articles must be formatted by the authors according to "Author Instructions" of the journal (www.ceser.in/ijamas.html).
Prospective authors should send their manuscript(s) to specialissue2012@gmail.com.

IMPORTANT DATES:
Deadline for Paper Submission: 30 August 2012
Paper Review Notification: 15 October 2012
Paper Acceptance: 25 November 2012
