The Hot off the Press track offers authors of recent papers the opportunity to present their work to the GECCO community, both by giving a talk on one of the three main days of the conference and by having a 2-page abstract appear in the proceedings companion, in which also the workshop papers, late-breaking abstracts, and tutorials appear. For more information see the Call for HOPs.
