GC-Technology 2026 is planned to feature special sessions, keynote talks and tutorial sessions by leading experts, paper presentations, poster shows, demo shows, discussion panels, as well as other interesting technical activities.
Enjoy attending GC-Technology 2026 at Hilton Alexandria Green Plaza, in Alexandria, Egypt.
*
Enjoy moderate registration fees, and register up to two papers for the same registration fee. Students receive substantial registration discounts.
*
Have the possiblity to extend and publish your conference papers with some of the top journal publishers.
*
Only full paper submissions are allowed at all our conferences. No summary or abstract submissions are allowed. Conference topic coverage includes the most current and exciting fields of knowledge and research.
*
Papers can be accepted to our conferences only after rigorous peer reviewing.
*
Our outstanding reviewing process is facilitated by careful selection of technical program committee members from among the best international experts. Each submitted paper is subject to no less than two peer reviews before it can be considered for acceptance.
*
Published papers of GC-Technology 2026 are indexed by Google Scholar. More indexing is on the way.
*
At each conference, and based on paper review scores, the paper with the highest scores receives the Best Paper Award. This is an award to which only presented papers are eligible. The best paper award is usually delivered to the presenter of the winning paper at the main conference dinner.

Evolving Better Rerouting Strategies with Genetic Programming
Summary
In artificial intelligence, Genetic Programming (GP) is a technique that is used to evolve programs. GP starts from a population of programs that are usually unfit to perform the task at hand, that it then evolves using natural evolution principles to search for more suitable programs in the search space. In this tutorial, I will briefly describe GP and go through how it could be applied to learn better strategies for managing vehicular networks. As a motivating example, I will present the use of a particular type of GP techniques (i.e., Grammar Guided-Genetic Programming) to evolve better rerouting strategies in urban environments
I am currently a Lecturer/Assistant Professor at the School of Computer Science, University College Dublin (UCD), undertaking teaching duties at the Beijing-Dublin International College (BDIC).
I have a strong background in Operations Research, Nature-Inspired Computing and Machine Learning, and their application on Cloud Computing, Software Engineering and Testing, and Communication Network Systems.
Previously, I have held the position of Post-doctoral Researcher at the Natural Computing Research & Applications Group located in Michael Smurfit Graduate Business School, UCD, under the supervision of Prof. Michael O’Neill. My Post-doctoral position was in close collaboration with Bell Labs, Nokia and aimed at applying Evolutionary Design to optimise Future Networks & Communications such as 5G networks.
I obtained both my B.Sc. in Computer Science and my M.Sc. in Computer Science, track: Optimisation In Operations Research in 2013 from the University of Nantes, France.
