================================================


In the field of genetic and evolutionary algorithms (GEAs), much theory and empirical study has been heaped upon operators and test problems, but problem

representation has often been taken as given. This monograph breaks with this tradition and studies a number of critical elements of a theory of

representations for GEAs and applies them to the empirical study of various important idealized test functions and problems of commercial import. The book

considers basic concepts of representations, such as redundancy, scaling and locality and describes how GEAs'performance is influenced. Using the developed

theory representations can be analyzed and designed in a theory-guided manner. The theoretical concepts are used as examples for efficiently solving integer

optimization problems and network design problems. The results show that proper representations are crucial for GEAs'success.
