Breaking the Billion-Variable Barrier in Real-World Optimization Using a Customized Evolutionary Algorithm

Wednesday, December 14th, 2022


This 2016 conference paper outlines how a customised optimisation algorithm was developed and tested on a casting scheduling scenario in a foundry. The research aimed to identify critical factors in handling tens of thousands of variables to find near-optimal solutions in a computationally fast manner.
