Advances in Multi-Objective Nature Inspired Computing
The purpose of this book is to collect contributions that deal with the use of nature inspired metaheuristics for solving multi-objective combinatorial optimization problems. Such a collection intends to provide an overview of the state-of-the-art developments in this field, with the aim of motivating more researchers in operations research, engineering, and computer science, to do research in this area. As such, this book is expected to become a valuable reference for those wishing to do research on the use of nature inspired metaheuristics for solving multi-objective combinatorial optimization problems.
Metaheuristics
This book’s aim is to provide several different kinds of information: a delineation of general metaheuristics methods, a number of state-of-the-art articles from a variety of well-known classical application areas as well as an outlook to modern computational methods in promising new areas. Therefore, this book may equally serve as a textbook in graduate courses for students, as a reference book for people interested in engineering or social sciences, and as a collection of new and promising avenues for researchers working in this field.
Handbook of Research on Solving Societal Challenges Through Sustainability-Oriented Innovation
In light of deeply dynamic and challenging contexts, innovation as a driver of sustainability could provide recommendations and real solutions to achieve a better world. Sustainable technologies are a critical aspect of modern innovation, as they consider natural resources and foster economic and social development. The goal of these technologies is to drastically reduce environmental and ecological risks and to create a sustainable product. The Handbook of Research on Solving Societal Challenges Through Sustainability-Oriented Innovation emphasizes the importance of innovation and sustainability as a possible solution for the challenges of society and reflects on the trends and opportunities for the coming decades. Covering key topics such as big data, innovation, digitalization, circular economy, and artificial intelligence, this premier reference source is ideal for industry professionals, government officials, computer scientists, policymakers, researchers, scholars, practitioners, instructors, and students.
Construction Logistics in a City Development Setting
With the current urbanization trend, there is an increased need for city development, i.e. to build apartment buildings, hospitals, schools and infrastructure in cities and urban areas to meet the rising demands. At the same time, land is increasingly seen as a finite resource. This has led to the regeneration of decommissioned industrial-use land for development purposes. This means that multiple individual construction projects are being built in the same or nearby areas during the same time-period. However, the end products of construction projects are produced at their place of consumption, which means that large quantities of materials and resources need to be delivered to, and removed ...
Applications of Evolutionary Computation
This book constitutes the refereed conference proceedings of the 18th International Conference on the Applications of Evolutionary Computation, EvoApplications 2015, held in Copenhagen, Spain, in April 2015, colocated with the Evo 2015 events EuroGP, EvoCOP, and EvoMUSART. The 72 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 125 submissions. EvoApplications 2015 consisted of the following 13 tracks: EvoBIO (evolutionary computation, machine learning and data mining in computational biology), EvoCOMNET (nature-inspired techniques for telecommunication networks and other parallel and distributed systems), EvoCOMPLEX (evolutionary algorithms and complex systems), EvoEN...
Construction Logistics Solutions in Urban Areas
More and more people are living in, or moving to, urban areas than ever before. This attraction to urban areas means that new houses and work places are needed. Building new houses or renovating older housing stock is a natural way for a city to evolve. However, the end products of construction projects are produced at their place of consumption. This means that a multitude of materials and resources need to be delivered to, and removed from, each construction site. This leads to new transport flows being created in urban areas. In urban areas, these transports are subjected to space limitations, environmental demands, accessibility demands and noise restrictions. This has led to a situation...

Decision-Making for Sustainable Transport and Mobility
Multi-Actor Multi-Criteria Analysis (MAMCA) developed by Professor Cathy Macharis enables decision-makers within the sectors of transport, mobility and logistics to account for conflicting stakeholder interests. This book draws on 15 years of research and application during which MAMCA has been deployed to support sustainable decisions within the transport and mobility sectors.
Computational Logistics
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Computational Logistics, ICCL 2021, held in September 2021. Due to COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held virtually. The 42 full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 111 submissions. They detail the interface of complex logistics systems and advanced computational methods from the fields of operations research, business analytics, and artificial intelligence. The papers are organized in topical sections named maritime and port logistics; supply chain and production management; urban transport and collaborative logistics; routing, dispatching, and scheduling; air logistics and multi-modal transport.
