The Vehicle Routing Problem with Time windows (VRPTW) is an extension of the capacity constrained Vehicle Routing Problem (VRP). The VRPTW is NP-Complete and instances with 100 cus...
In contrast with the diverse array of genetic algorithms, the Genetic Programming (GP) paradigm is usually applied in a relatively uniform manner. Heuristics have developed over t...

— For complex optimization problems, several population-based heuristics like Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithms have been developed. These algorithms are aiming to deliver ...
GA-based clustering algorithms often employ either simple GA, steady state GA or their variants and fail to consistently and efficiently identify high quality solutions (best known...
A new family of "Distribution Replacement” operators for use in steady state genetic algorithms is presented. Distribution replacement enforces the members of the populatio...
