  text: "Industrial electrification is increasing to reduce fossil fuel dependence,
    alongside a growing share of volatile renewables.\r\nA secure and reliable energy
    supply is crucial for industry, leading to a shift from centralised to decentralised
    grid structures.\r\nDC microgrids becoming increasingly popular in industry, since
    they enable energy recuperation from braking, reduce components and cables, and
    integrate storage and local generation to manage supply interruptions or peak
    loads.\r\nEVs add further synergies by serving as mobile storage units, helping
    to store and redistribute locally generated renewable energy.\r\nThis paper analyses
    how EV integration in droop-controlled DC grids can contribute to a more stable,
    low-emission and peak-reduced load profile to the supply grid through load shifting
    and bridge interruptions.\r\nA droop-controlled DC grid model has been developed,
    incorporating an EV charging park based on probability functions.\r\nScalable
    scenarios allow for diverse condition analysis using an energy management system
    that utilises fuzzy logic and sequential MILP optimisation.\r\nIt has been shown
    that a 7% improvement of coefficient represented grid-serving behaviour is possible
    by load shifting.\r\nIt has also been demonstrated that an optimised EMS can reduce
    the demand-based CO2 emissions by 41kg for a representative day compared to a
    fuzzy logic EMS.\r\nAt the same time peak load is decreased yielding a more constant
    residual load.\r\nThese results highlight the potential of a controlled bidirectional
    charging infrastructure in DC grids and underscore the need to explicitly consider
    charging processes to ensure a residual load as constant as possible."

  text: Recently different evolutionary computation approaches have been developed
    that generate sets of high quality diverse solutions for a given optimisation
    problem. Many studies have considered diversity 1) as a mean to explore niches
    in behavioural space (quality diversity) or 2) to increase the structural differences
    of solutions (evolutionary diversity optimisation). In this study, we introduce
    a co-evolutionary algorithm to simultaneously explore the two spaces for the multi-component
    traveling thief problem. The results show the capability of the co-evolutionary
    algorithm to achieve significantly higher diversity compared to the baseline evolutionary
    diversity algorithms from the literature.

  text: Computing diverse sets of high-quality solutions has gained increasing attention
    among the evolutionary computation community in recent years. It allows practitioners
    to choose from a set of high-quality alternatives. In this paper, we employ a
    population diversity measure, called the high-order entropy measure, in an evolutionary
    algorithm to compute a diverse set of high-quality solutions for the Traveling
    Salesperson Problem. In contrast to previous studies, our approach allows diversifying
    segments of tours containing several edges based on the entropy measure. We examine
    the resulting evolutionary diversity optimisation approach precisely in terms
    of the final set of solutions and theoretical properties. Experimental results
    show significant improvements compared to a recently proposed edge-based diversity
    optimisation approach when working with a large population of solutions or long
    segments.

  text: Submodular functions allow to model many real-world optimisation problems.
    This paper introduces approaches for computing diverse sets of high quality solutions
    for submodular optimisation problems with uniform and knapsack constraints. We
    first present diversifying greedy sampling approaches and analyse them with respect
    to the diversity measured by entropy and the approximation quality of the obtained
    solutions. Afterwards, we introduce an evolutionary diversity optimisation (EDO)
    approach to further improve diversity of the set of solutions. We carry out experimental
    investigations on popular submodular benchmark problems and analyse trade-offs
    in terms of solution quality and diversity of the resulting solution sets.

  text: Evolutionary algorithms based on edge assembly crossover (EAX) constitute
    some of the best performing incomplete solvers for the well-known traveling salesperson
    problem (TSP). Often, it is desirable to compute not just a single solution for
    a given problem, but a diverse set of high quality solutions from which a decision
    maker can choose one for implementation. Currently, there are only a few approaches
    for computing a diverse solution set for the TSP. Furthermore, almost all of them
    assume that the optimal solution is known. In this paper, we introduce evolutionary
    diversity optimisation (EDO) approaches for the TSP that find a diverse set of
    tours when the optimal tour is known or unknown. We show how to adopt EAX to not
    only find a high-quality solution but also to maximise the diversity of the population.
    The resulting EAX-based EDO approach, termed EAX-EDO is capable of obtaining diverse
    high-quality tours when the optimal solution for the TSP is known or unknown.
    A comparison to existing approaches shows that they are clearly outperformed by
    EAX-EDO.

  text: Self-optimizing systems are able to adapt their behavior autonomously according
    to their current self-determined objectives. Unforeseen influences could lead
    to dependability-critical behavior of the system. Methods are required which secure
    self-optimizing systems during operation. These methods to increase the dependability
    of the system should already be taken into consideration in the design process.
    This paper presents a guideline for the dependability-oriented design of self-optimizing
    systems, which integrates established classical methods like failure mode and
    effects analysis as well as methods based on self-optimization. On the one hand
    self-optimization is used to increase the dependability of the system by integrating
    objectives like safety, availability, and reliability to the objectives of the
    system. On the other hand methods are required to ensure the self-optimization
    itself. As basis for this guideline serves the principle solution of the system.
    The six phases of the guideline extend the design process and lead to an enhanced
    principle solution. Additionally, the guideline illustrates phases to implement
    and validate the self-optimizing system. The proposed guideline is applied to
    an innovative rail-bound vehicle, called RailCab, which is equipped with self-optimizing
    function modules.

  text: The paper presents a framework to optimise the design of work roll based on
    the cooling performance. The framework develops meta-models from a set of finite
    element analyses (FEA) of the roll cooling. A design of experiment technique is
    used to identify the FEA runs. The research also identifies sources of uncertainties
    in the design process. A robust evolutionary multi-objective evaluation technique
    is applied to the design optimisation in constrained problems with real life uncertainty.
    The approach handles uncertainties associated both with design variables and fitness
    functions. Constraints violation within the neighbourhood of a design is considered
    as part of a measurement for degree of feasibility and robustness of a solution.

  text: For human-machine interfaces in distant-talking environments multichannel
    signal processing is often employed to obtain an enhanced signal for subsequent
    processing. In this paper we propose a novel adaptation algorithm for a filter-and-sum
    beamformer to adjust the coefficients of FIR filters to changing acoustic room
    impulses, e.g. due to speaker movement. A deterministic and a stochastic gradient
    ascent algorithm are derived from a constrained optimization problem, which iteratively
    estimates the eigenvector corresponding to the largest eigenvalue of the cross
    power spectral density of the microphone signals. The method does not require
    an explicit estimation of the speaker location. The experimental results show
    fast adaptation and excellent robustness of the proposed algorithm.
