Random Search Procedures for Global Optimization
Solving optimization problems from engineering, as, e.g., parameter—or process—optimization problems $$\displaystyle \min F (x) \mbox{ s.t. } x \in D, $$ where D is a subset of \(\mathbb {R}^n\) , one meets often the following situation: (a) One should fi

Preface
Optimization problems in practice depend mostly on several model parameters, noise factors, uncontrollable parameters, etc., which are not given fixed quantities at the planning stage. Typical examples from engineering and economics/operations research are: material parameters, manufacturing errors, tolerances, noise terms, demand parameters, technological coefficients in input–output functions, cost factors, etc. Due to several types of stochastic uncertainties (physical uncertainty, economic uncertainty, statistical uncertainty, and model uncertainty), th
