Dear Colleague,

we would like to inform you of the forthcoming 13th edition of the "Application of Nature-inspired Techniques for Communication Networks and other Parallel and Distributed Systems" (EvoCOMNET), to be held in Porto, Portugal, 30 March - 1 April 2016 as a part of EvoStar 2016 EvoApplications Conference.

This year’s edition is technically sponsored by the World Federation on Soft Computing www.softcomputing.org <http://www.softcomputing.org/>.

Accepted papers will appear in the proceedings of EvoApplications, published in a volume of the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science by Springer.

Furthermore, a selection of the best accepted papers, suitably revised and extended, will be eligible for fast-track publication in Applied Soft Computing journal by Elsevier, thanks to the technical sponsorship offered by the World Federation on Soft Computing.

SCOPE AND TOPICS OF INTEREST

Papers relevant to EvoCOMNET should show the application of Evolutionary Computation techniques, or of hybrid methods containing evolutionary issues, to the solution of real-world problems in fields where a network, be it physical or logical, is present.

Examples of such fields include, among others:
o    communication systems
o    sensor networks
o    mobile networks
o    graphs
o    parallel and distributed optimization algorithms
o    network-based computing systems and related management activities
