In this paper we describe how the Stepwise Adaptation of Weights (saw) technique can be applied in genetic programming. The saw-ing mechanism has been originally developed for and ...
The optimization of the epoxy polymerization process involves a number of conflicting objectives and more than twenty decision parameters. In this paper, the problem is treated tr...

The Valued Constraint Satisfaction Problem (VCSP) is a general framework encompassing many optimisation problems. We discuss precisely what it means for a problem to be modelled in...
