[AISWorld] Call for papers in Special Issue on "Differential Evolution for Manufacturing and Production Engineering Applications"

[#KULKARNI ANAND JAYANT#]

Dear Colleagues,

This is a call for papers in the Special Issue on "Differential Evolution for Manufacturing and Production Engineering Applications" in ‘Algorithms’ journal (ISSN 1999-4893) (https://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/special_issues/DEM_pea)

Deadline for manuscript submissions: 15 September 2022.

The scope and other information are as follows:

Several approximation optimization algorithms have been proposed in manufacturing and production engineering applications so far. These approaches have been instrumental in solving several complex interdisciplinary problems; one such popular evolutionary methodology is the Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm. The DE has several advantages: it is derivative-free, resorts to directional searches and, importantly, can efficiently handle continuous, discrete and combinatorial problems. So far, several variations of the DE have been proposed and applied to a variety of problems across several domains; however, its application in manufacturing and production is less explored. The manufacturing domain is at the center of economic development of every country where efficient and optimum utilization of resources is critical. This Special Issue calls for contributions focusing on the various related aspects of the Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm as well as its hybrid, including (but not limited to) the following areas:

• Manufacturing processes;
• Design of machine elements;
• Productivity of the machining processes;
• Production planning and scheduling;
• Flexible manufacturing;
• Supply chain management;
• Robotics and automation.


Manuscript Submission Information

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com<https://www.mdpi.com/> by registering<https://www.mdpi.com/user/register/> and logging in to this website<https://www.mdpi.com/user/login/>. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form<https://susy.mdpi.com/user/manuscripts/upload/?journal=algorithms>. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors<https://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/instructions> page. Algorithms<https://www.mdpi.com/journal/algorithms/> is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.
