Evolutionary computation (EC) incorporates evolutionary ideas into algorithms. These algorithms can be applied to problems of biological interest. They are interesting models for evolution, so that EC ...

Expensive optimization problem (EOP) refers to the problem that requires expensive or even unaffordable costs to evaluate candidate solutions, which widely exist in many significant real-world ...

What if computers could program themselves? Instead of the laborious job of working out how a computer could solve a problem and then writing precise coded instructions, all you would have to do is ...

Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) is continuously gaining new domains of application. We'll study several important design and implementation issues in one new domain: parallel evolutionary algorithms ...
