Preface
Evolutionary computation (EC) represents a class of optimization methodologies inspired by natural evolution. During the past several decades, evolutionary algorithms (EAs) have been extensively studied by the computer science and artificial intelligence communities. As a class of stochastic optimization techniques, EAs can often outperform classi
