A comprehensive and easy to understand introduction to a wide range of tools to help designers to optimize their projects. The authors are engineers and therefore many of the examples are on engineering applications, but the techniques presented are common to various areas of k…
Christos H. Papadimitriou and Kenneth Steiglitz have combined the theory of computational complexity developed by computer scientists, and the foundations of mathematical programming developed by the operations research community. This text will be useful to students with a wide…
A text for a range of graduate courses, with some of the material suitable for students of computer science with a background in the theory of algorithms and some suitable for those with a background in operations research. Corrected and unabridged from the 1982 publication by P…

This book contains a complete listing of a simple genetic algorithm in Pascal, which C programmers can easily understand. The book covers all of the important topics in the field, including crossover, mutation, classifier systems, and fitness scaling, giving a novice with a comp…
This book brings together - in an informal and tutorial fashion - the computer techniques, mathematical tools, and research results that will enable both students and practitioners to apply genetic algorithms to problems in many fields. Major concepts are illustrated with runnin…
