While all papers have to be submitted via the normal CEC'2015 submission system at http://sites.ieee.org/cec2015/paper-submission/ (please choose “SS23. CEC Black Box Optimization Benchmarking 2015”), we ask authors to follow an additional procedure regarding the data:

For each single paper submission (in addition to submitting the paper itself):

1. prepare an archive with the following files:
   • paper as pdf (required),
   • corresponding raw data (required if applicable),
   • algorithm source code or library (optional, but desired), including make files and/or calling script(s) like exampleexperiment.*. If a commercial optimizer was used, only the calling script(s) should be submitted.
2. upload the archive to a site of your choice, for example
   • https://mega.co.nz (no login required, encrypted) or
   • https://www.dropbox.com/
3. email the download link to bbob _at_ lri.fr, mentioning paper title and authors

Submission deadline is December 19, 2014 extended until January 16, 2015 January 23, 2015
