Colloquia from science leaders and technology innovators SD Lakeside Labs

In this talk Prof. Eiben presents a vision about the upcoming breakthrough in artificial evolution: animate artefacts that (self-)reproduce in physical spaces. In other words, he envision the ``Evolution of Things'', rather than just the evolution of digital objects, leading to a new field of Embodied Artificial Evolution. After presenting this vision he elaborate on some of the technical challenges and relate the main algorithmic/technical requirements to the current know-how in EC. Finally, he will speculate about possible applications, their societal impacts, and argue that these developments will radically change our lives.

Leonardo Bezerra: Multi-objective ant colony optimization (MOACO) algorithms have shown promising results for various multi-objective problems, but they also offer a large number of possible design choices. Often, exploring all possible configurations is practically infeasible. Recently, the automatic configuration of a MOACO framework was explored and was shown to result in new state-of-the-art MOACO algorithms for the bi-objective traveling salesman problem. In this video Leonardo talks about this approach to the bi-objective bidimensional knapsack problem (bBKP) to prove its generality and power.

The Lakeside Research Days are an annual workshop focussing on the core competence of Lakeside Labs: self-organizing networked systems.
International experts are devoted to a special topic in selforganizatuion in the anual organized workshop of Alpen-Adria-Universität and Lakeside Labs. The event is organized as a five days workshop. It takes place at Lakeside Labs GmbH in Klagenfurt am Wörthersee, Austria, near a beautiful lake and alps scenery.
Invited experts, local professors, and young researchers discuss and elaborate ideas in the field of self-organizing systems (SOS). The main emphasis of the workshop is on soliciting discussions and creating new ideas regarding a topic related to self-organizing systems.
The event provides an exellent platform for scientific exchange, networking, establishment of international collaboration, and joint research projects.
