Ales Zamuda received his B.Sc., M.Sc., and Ph.D. degrees in computer science from University of Maribor, Slovenia, in 2006, 2008, and 2012, respectively. As an affiliate of Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the University of Maribor he acts within research group Computer Architecture and Languages Laboratory and programme-funded unit Computer Systems, Methodologies, and Intelligent Services. His areas of interest include evolutionary algorithms, multicriterion optimization, artificial life, and computer animation. He has written over 50 scientific papers and among them several journal papers ranked in first quarter of computer science category such as Applied Soft Computing and Information Sciences and received several citations of his scientific works. He started programming in elementary school and since then won several national and international awards, such as Danubius Young Scientist at few years after his habilitation; from his dissertation, 2012 gold medal at international invention fair in Seoul; and international IEEE R8 SPC 2007 award for diploma work. His biography is selected in Marquis Who is Who in the World and he is a IEEE Senior Member and IEEE CIS member. He is also a regular reviewer for the IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation and more than 30 other prominent scientific journals. He has been a member of the program/technical committees of more than 50 international conferences over the last few years. He is also associate editor at Swarm and Evolutionary Computation.
