The European Community on Computational Methods in Applied Sciences (ECCOMAS) organizes a thematic international conference dedicated to evolutionary and deterministic computing for industrial applications.

Global experts from cross-cutting fields will meet for three days in Lahti, Finland, in September 2025, hosted by LUT University, to discuss the latest trends in optimization techniques, including evolutionary algorithms, multi-objective optimization, and other advanced methods.

The CIMNE Congress Bureau leads the Conference Secretariat for the event, which has its origins in the INGENET European Thematic Network (1998-2000) on genetic algorithms.
