Being complex and combinatorial optimization problems, Permutation Flow Shop Scheduling Problems (PFSSP) are difficult to be solved optimally. PFSSP occurs in many manufacturing systems i.e. automobile industry, glass paper appliances pharmaceutical the generation of best schedule is very important for these systems. Evolution Strategy (ES) a subclass Evolutionary algorithms this paper, we prop...

Reproductive success and survival are influenced by wealth in human populations. Wealth is transmitted to offsprings and strategies of transmission vary over time and among populations, the main variation being how equally wealth is transmitted to children. Here we propose a model where we simulate both the dynamics of wealth in a population and the evolution of a trait that determines how weal...

Abstract We consider a neutral haploid population whose generations are not overlapping and whose size is large and constantly of N individuals. Any generation is replaced by a new one and any individual has a single parent. We do not choose the stochastic rule which assigns the number of offsprings to any individual since results do not depend on the details of the dynamics, and, as a conseque...
