Sample review forms from
Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference,
Genetic Programming and Evolvable Machines Journal,
Artifical Intelligence Journal,
Evolutionary Algorithms Journal,
HICSS
Theoretical Computer Science C.
These are the types of forms that reviewers fill out when evaluating a paper for publication. We will use these
for some of the assignments.
Writing a paper so that it is easy for the reviewer to give you positive marks in each
category significantly improves your chances of acceptance.
