This book is intended as a reference both for experienced users of evolutionary algorithms and for researchers that are beginning to approach these fascinating optimization techniques. Experienced users will find interesting details of real-world problems, and advice on solving issues related to fitness computation, modeling and setting appropriate parameters to reach optimal solutions. Beginners will find a thorough introduction to evolutionary computation, and a complete presentation of all evolutionary algorithms exploited to solve different problems. The book could fill the gap between the purely theoretical examples, like bit strings, and the real world. For instance. Finally, the book would be extremely appealing for anyone interested in Evolutionary Computation, but without direct access to the extensive technical literature.
