In other words, the book presents various multi-objective combinatorial optimization issues that may benefit from different methods in theory and practice. Combinatorial optimization problems appear in a wide range of applications in operations research, engineering, biological sciences and computer science, hence many optimization approaches have been developed that link the discrete universe to the continuous universe through geometric, analytic and algebraic techniques.
This book covers this important topic as computational optimization has become increasingly popular as design optimization and its applications in engineering and industry have become ever more important due to more stringent design requirements in modern engineering practice.
- Presents a collection of the most up-to-date research, providing a complete overview of multi-objective combinatorial optimization problems and applications
- Introduces new approaches to handle different engineering and science problems, providing the field with a collection of related research not already covered in the primary literature
- Demonstrates the efficiency and power of the various algorithms, problems and solutions, including numerous examples that illustrate concepts and algorithms
Students, educators, and researchers in the field of Data Science, Computer Science, and mathematics. Research scientists and engineers in the fields of operations research, medical and biological sciences, industrial engineers, plant managers as well as research and development scientists
