EuroGP is the only conference worldwide exclu- sively devoted to genetic programmingand the evolutionary generationof com- puter programs. For almost two decades, genetic programming (GP) has been recognized as a dynamic and important form of evolutionary computation. With over 7,000 articles in the online GP bibliography maintained by Bill Langdon, it is clearly a mature field. EuroGPhas contributed to the success of the field substantially, by being a unique forum for expressing new ideas, meeting, and starting up collaborations. This year we received 59 submissions from 25 different countries across four continents. The papers underwent a rigorous double-blind peer-review process, each being reviewed by at least three members of the International Program Committee from 22 countries on four different continents. The selection process resulted in this volume, with 20 papers accepted for oral presentation (33.90% acceptancerate)andnineforposterpresentation(49.15%globalacceptancerate fortalksandposterscombined).Thewide rangeoftopicsinthis volumereflects the currentstate ofresearchinthe field,including theory,representations,novel operators and techniques, self organization,and applications. EuroGP 2011 was part of the Evo* 2011 event, which included three ad- ditional conferences: EvoCOP 2011, EvoBIO 2011, and EvoApplications 2011. Many people helped to make this event a success. Firstly,we wouldlike to thank the greatcommunityof researchersandprac- titioners who contributed to the conference by both submitting their work and reviewing others’ as part of the Program Committee. Their hard work resulted in a high-quality conference. Thepapersweresubmitted,reviewed,andselectedusingtheMyReviewcon- ference management software. We are sincerely grateful to Marc Schoenauer of INRIA, France,for his greatassistance in providing,hosting,and managingthe software. Many thanks to the local organizer Mario Giacobini of the University of Torino, and to the following local sponsors: Human Genetics Foundation of Torino (HuGeF) and the following institutions of the University of Torino: School for Biotechnologies, Molecular Biotechnology Center, Museum of Hu- manAnatomy“LuigiRolando,”andMuseumofCriminalAnthropology“Cesare Lombroso.” AlsoabigthankstoPenousalMachadooftheUniversityofCoimbra,assisted by PedroMiguelCruz andJoa˜oBicker,forcreatingandmaintaining the official Evo* 2011 website. VI Preface We wouldalsolike to expressour sincerestgratitude to ourinvitedspeakers, who gave the inspiring keynote talks: Craig Reynolds, senior researcherat Sony Computer Entertainment, USA, and Jean-Pierre Changeux, professor emeritus at the Coll`ege de France and at the Institut Pasteur, France. Lastbut certainly not least, we especially wantto express a heartfelt thanks toJenniferWilliesandtheCentreforEmergentComputingatEdinburghNapier University. Ever since its inauguralmeeting in 1998 this event has relied on her dedicated work and continued involvement and we do not exaggerate when we state that without her, Evo* could not have achieved its current status.
