Abstract:
Genetic algorithms have a lot of properties that makes it a good choice when one needs to solve very complicated problems. The performance of genetic algorithms is affected by the parameters that are used. Optimization of the parameters for the genetic algorithm is one of the most popular research fields of genetic algorithms. One of the reasons for this is because of the complicated relation between the parameters and factors such as the complexity of the problem. This thesis describes what happens when time constraints are added to this problem. One of the most important parameters is popula

In chapter three, a relation between the critical exponents of the leading and confluent scaling terms is derived using the finite size scaling argument.

It finds that the presence of uncertainty in firms' decision-making renders the system inconsistent with either rational behaviour on the part of firms, or SFC's wider claims to rigorous consistency conditions being met.

Recent debates about environmental governance emphasize the roles of participation, evidence and deliberation. Authors have discussed how deliberative theory can deepen commitments to public participation in policy debates. Evidence, however, is often presented as neutral and objective fact, and on this basis is privileged in policy debates, preemptively defining environmental problems and solutions. Under this circumstance, how can policy processes take deliberation seriously? How can the politics of evidence be identified and openly addressed by participants in policy processes? These resear

Given the importance of rental accommodation, particularly for those lower-income households unable to enter or remain in the ownership sector, this situation has prompted a discussion as to whether the past and current approach to rental housing poli
