Evolutionary Methods for MultiObjective

Optimization and

Decision Making

During

20th International Conference on MultiCriterion

Optimization and

Decision Making (2126

June 2009) Chengdu, China

Organizers: Kalyanmoy Deb and Eckart Zitzler

The goal of this workshop is to showcase salient current research and

application studies on multi©\objective optimization and decision making using

evolutionary computation methodologies during the mainstream conference in

MCDM. The major research and application in evolutionary multi©\objective

optimization (EMO) started in early nineties and was boosted by their flexibility

and ability to find multiple near Pareto©\optimal solutions in a single simulation.

Since the early studies, EMO methodologies are increasingly being used in

different problem solving tasks including sciences, engineering and commerce.

Lately, EMO methodologies are also being integrated with MCDM techniques to

handle both optimization and decision©\making tasks usually involved in a multiobjective

optimization study.

The organization of the workshop within the mainstream MCDM conference is

likely to foster collaborations between major research fields in multi©\objective

optimization and decision making today.

The workshop invites high quality papers in all theoretical, developmental,

implementational and applied aspects of EMO and decision making. Papers

focussing on hybrid EMO and MCDM methodologies are highly encouraged.

Submitted papers should not have been previously published nor be currently

under consideration for publication elsewhere. Refereeing and the selection of

papers will be carried out according to the standards of Lecture Notes in

Economics and Mathematical Systems. Papers must not exceed eight pages in

length in the LNEM style.
