This book mainly reflects the recent research works in evolutionary computation technologies and mobile sustainable networks with a specific focus on computational intelligence and communication technologies that widely ranges from theoretical foundations to practical applications in enhancing the sustainability of mobile networks. Today, network sustainability has become a significant research domain in both academia and industries present across the globe. Also, the network sustainability paradigm has generated a solution for existing optimization challenges in mobile communication networks. Recently, the research advances in evolutionary computing technologies including swarm intelligence algorithms and other evolutionary algorithm paradigms are considered as the widely accepted descriptors for mobile sustainable networks virtualization, optimization, and automation. To deal with the emerging impacts on mobile communication networks, this book discusses about the state-of-the research works on developing a sustainable design and their implementation in mobile networks.

During the first week of September 1999, the Second EvoNet Summer School on Theoretical Aspects of Evolutionary Computing was held at the Middelheim cam­ pus of the University of Antwerp, Belgium. Originally intended as a small get­ together of PhD students interested in the theory of evolutionary computing, the summer school grew to become a successful combination of a four-day workshop with over twenty researchers in the field and a two-day lecture series open to a wider audience. This book is based on the lectures and workshop contributions of this summer school. Its first part consists of tutorial papers which introduce the reader to a num­ ber of important directions in the theory of evolutionary computing. The tutorials are at graduate level andassume only a basic backgroundin mathematics and com­ puter science. No prior knowledge ofevolutionary computing or its theory is nec­ essary. The second part of the book consists of technical papers, selected from the workshop contributions. A number of them build on the material of the tutorials, exploring the theory to research level. Other technical papers may require a visit to the library.
