چکیده
Three applications of evolutionary algorithms at the Center for Applied Systems Analysis, namely the optimization of nuclear reactor core reload designs, of chemical engineering plants, and of optical multilayer systems, are brieey described in this paper. The examples clarify the enormous robustness and wide applicability of the evolutionary approach to problems involving highly complex, problem-adequate representations of solutions, variation operators derived from the representation, and the handling of expert knowledge to support the search process.
