The  "International Conference on Genetic Algorithms & their Applications"
was held July 24-26, 1985, at Carnegie-Mellon University.  It was jointly
sponsored by Texas Instruments & the US Navy Center for Applied Research
in Artificial Intelligence (NCARAI).  The editor was Professor John Grefenstette
at Vanderbilt University.   

I took a course on Genetic algorithms from Professor Grefenstette last year.
However, I believe that he has moved to another school by now.  Vanderbilt
should be able to point you to him, and he has copies of the proceedings.
