Olariu S. Handbook of Bioinspired Algorithms and Applications

Boca Raton: CRC Press, 2005. — 658 p.Featuring contributions from leading experts in the field, Handbook of Bioinspired Algorithms and Applications explores the connection between biologically inspired (or bio-inspired) techniques and the development of solutions to problems that arise in a variety of problem domains. This comprehensive book describes various techniques based on bio-paradigms that can provide efficient solutions to a wide variety of problems in science and engineering. The text also includes numerous case studies as they relate to issues in science and engineering with solutions to these problems based on bio-inspired paradigms. Graduate students and researchers in the field will find this to be a useful reference.
