Exploring alternative product modularisations with multi-objective optimisation

This paper presents a multi-objective optimisation framework for product modularisation. At the heart of the software is a custom developed genetic algorithm that is able to generate a whole range of alternative product modularisations. Once generated, the solution set is then explored to examine th...

At the heart of the software is a custom developed genetic algorithm that is able to generate a whole range of alternative product modularisations.
