Swarm intelligence is an innovative computational way to solving hard pr- lems. This discipline is inspired by the behavior of social insects such as ?sh schools and bird ?ocks and colonies of ants, termites, bees and wasps. In g- eral, this is done by mimicking the behavior of the biological creatures within their swarms and colonies.

Cryptography is the study of methods to transform information from its original comprehensible form into a scrambled incomprehensible form, such that its content can only be disclosed to some qualified persons. This book includes content that is focused on

Aims to provide a representation of the evolutionary multi-objective optimisation research area and related trends. This book reports many innovative designs yielded by the application of such optimisation methods. It is divided into two main parts: evolut
