Mission and Vision of ICSES Transactions on Evolutionary and Metaheuristic Algorithms (ITEMA)

This Editorial article is devoted to better introduce the Mission and Vision of ICSES Transactions on Evolutionary and Metaheuristic Algorithms (ITEMA) to the community of evolutionary and swarm intelligence scientists, engineers and practitioners. Actually, the ICSES Transactions on Evolutionary and Metaheuristic Algorithms (ITEMA) is a peer-reviewed open-access publication of its kind that aims at reporting the most recent research and developments in the area of bio-inspired intelligent computation based on the principles of evolutionary as well as metaheuristic algorithms. It publishes advanced, innovative and interdisciplinary research involving the theoretical, experimental and practical aspects of the two paradigms and their hybridizations. ICSES Transactions on Evolutionary and Metaheuristic Algorithms (ITEMA) is committed to timely publication of very high-quality, peer-reviewed, original articles that advance the state-of-the art of all aspects of evolutionary computation and metaheuristics. Survey papers reviewing the state-of-the-art of timely topics will also be welcomed as well as novel and interesting applications.
