This paper proposes a method to use reference points as preferences to guide a particle swarm algorithm to search towards preferred regions of the Pareto front. A decision maker c...
The number of probes needed by the best possible algorithm for locally or globally optimizing a bivariate function varies substantially depending on the assumptions made about the ...
In a distributed computing system (DCS), we need to allocate a number of modules to different processors for execution. It is desired to maximize the processor synergism in order...
When facing dynamic optimization problems the goal is no longer to find the extrema, but to track their progression through the space as closely as possible. Over these kind of ov...

In this paper, we provide a systematic comparison of various evolutionary approaches to multiobjective optimization using six carefully chosen test functions. Each test function i...
