The practical application of Genetic Algorithms to the solution of engineering problems, is rapidly becoming an established approach in the fields of control and signal processing. This book provides comprehensive coverage of the techniques involved, describing the intrinsic characteristics, advantages and constraints of genetic algorithms, as well as discussing genetic operations such as crossover, mutation and reinsertion. In addition, the principle of multiobjective optimization and computing parallelism are discussed. These features are fully illustrated by real-world applications. Also described is a newly proposed and unique hierarchical genetic algorithm designed to address the problems in determining system topology. For added value, a 3.5" disk accompanies the book, that provides the reader with an interactive Genetic Algorithms demonstration programme.

From the reviews: This superb book is suitable for readers from a wide range of disciplines. Assembly Automation 20 (2000) 86 This is a well-written engineering textbook. Genetic algorithms are properly explained and well motivated. The engineering examples illustrate the power of application of genetic algorithms. Journal of the American Statistical Association March (2002) 366 (Reviewer: William F. Fulkerson) The book is a good contribution to the genetic algorithm area from an applied point of view. It should be read by engineers, undergraduate or postgraduate students and researchers. International Journal of Adaptive Control and Signal Processing 19 (2005) 59 - 62 (Reviewer: Doris Saez)
