Typical applications of evolutionary optimization in static environments involve the approximation of the extrema of functions. For dynamic environments, the interest is not to lo...
We describe the Enhanced Evolutionary Tabu Search (EE-TS) local search technique. The EE-TS metaheuristic technique combines Reactive Tabu Search with evolutionary computing eleme...
Designing technical plants is a complex and demanding process. It has been shown that the optimization of the simple facility placement problem is already NP-hard. Optimization of...
Design optimization is a well established application field of evolutionary computation. However, standard recombination operators acting on the genotypic representation of the d...

We hypothesize that the relationship between parameter settings, specically parameters controlling mutation, and performance is non-linear in genetic programs. Genetic programmin...
