Since then the area has developed dramatically, many researchers joining enthusiastically and research groups sprouting everywhere. This frenetic activity led to the emergence of several strands that are now established ?elds in themselves. We are now reaching a stage that one may describe as maturer: with more rigour, more benchmarks, more results, more stringent acceptance criteria, more applications, in brief, more sound science. This, which is the n- ural path of all new areas, comes at a price, however. A certain enthusiasm, a certain adventurousness from the early years is fading and may have been lost on the way. The ?eld has become more reasonable. To counterbalance this and to encourage lively discussions, a conceptual track, where papers were judged on criteria like importance and/or novelty of the concepts proposed rather than the experimental/theoretical results, has been introduced this year. A conference on a theme as broad as Arti?cial Life is bound to be very - verse,but a few tendencies emerged. First, ?elds like ?Robotics and Autonomous Agents? or ?Evolutionary Computation? are still extremely active and keep on bringing a wealth of results to the A-Life community. Even there, however, new tendencies appear, like collective robotics, and more speci?cally self-assembling robotics, which represent now a large subsection. Second, new areas appear. 410 0$aLecture notes in computer science ;$v3630. 410 0$aLecture notes in computer science.$pLecture notes in artificial intelligence. 517 3 $aECAL 2005 606 $aBiological systems$xComputer simulation$vCongresses 606 $aBiological systems$xSimulation methods$vCongresses 606 $aRobotics$vCongresses 606 $aArtificial intelligence$vCongresses 615 0$aBiological systems$xComputer simulation 615 0$aBiological systems$xSimulation methods 615 0$aRobotics 615 0$aArtificial intelligence 676 $a570.1/13 701 $aCapcarrere$b Mathieu S$01751463 712 12$aEuropean Conference on Artificial Life 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484656703321 996 $aAdvances in artificial life$94186444 997 $aUNINA
