Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Water Management in the '90s: A Time for Innovation

Abstract:

A new optimization technique of generic algorithms has recently been successfully applied to pipe network optimization. In this paper a parametric analysis is carried out of the genetic algorithm in order to assess the form of the fitness function.
