Genetic Programming: An emerging engineering tool

Genetic Programming: An emerging engineering tool

It is now 15 years since Genetic Programming (GP) burst on the research scene in Koza’s seminal book [3], though it had been pre-figured by a number of previous explorations of similar ideas [1,7]. Koza first showed that GP could be a credible engineering tool, and subsequent volumes [4–6] and the human-competitive research competitions [2] have drawn attention to its wide range of achievements...

Geometric Programming: An Engineering Tool for Compressor Design

Geometric programming is a new optimization technique developed to solve nonlinear engineering design problems subject to either linear or nonlinear constraints. This paper outlines the procedure and illustrates its use with a series of examples. These examples include a compressor design, and a compressor transmission line problem. Geometric programming solutions not only yield optimal design ...

Genetic Programming within Civil Engineering

The application of Genetic programming to civil engineering design problems is relatively new. This paper both describes and demonstrates how by using a suitable form of representation based on graph networks, GP can be applied to structural design problems to produce solutions that offer significant improvements over traditional GA based methods. The paper concludes by presenting the direction...

automatic verification of authentication protocols using genetic programming

implicit and unobserved errors and vulnerabilities issues usually arise in cryptographic protocols and especially in authentication protocols. this may enable an attacker to make serious damages to the desired system, such as having the access to or changing secret documents, interfering in bank transactions, having access to users’ accounts, or may be having the control all over the syste...
