Abstract:This paper describes the development and evaluation of a range of metaheuristic search algorithms applied to the optimal design of two-dimensional layout problems, with the particular application on residential building construction. Results are presented to allow the performance of the different algorithms to be compared in the pareto-optimal solution space, with resulting solutions identified and analysed in the objective space. These results show that all of the algorithms investigated have the potential to… Show more
