Abstract

An adaptive Pareto differential evolution algorithm for multi-objective optimization is proposed. Its effectiveness on approximating the Pareto front is compared with that of SPEA [9] and of SPDE [2]. A parallel implementation, based on an island model with a random connection topology, is also analyzed. The parallelization efficiency derives from the simple migration strategy. Numerical tests were performed on a cluster of workstations.
