This text addresses one of the most important optimization techniques in the industrial engineering manufacturing areas; the use of genetic algorithms to improve design and produce reliable products of high quality. Genetic algorithms is a probabilistic search technique which is based on the principles of biological evolution. As biological entities continually evolve and adapt genetically towards an individual which is more suitable to its environment so a genetic algorithm will follow paths of analysis which evolve a specific design towards the best result based on the environmental...

Artificial evolutionary systems are computer systems, inspired by ideas from natural evolution and related phenomena. The field has a long history, dating back to the earliest days of computer science, but it has only become an established scientific and engineering discipline since the 1990s, with packages for the commonest form, genetic algorithms, now widely available. Researchers in the Asia-Pacific region have participated strongly in the development of evolutionary systems, with a particular emphasis on the evolution of intelligent solutions to highly complex problems. The Asia-Pacific...
