Constrained model predictive control: Stability and optimality

by D. Q. Mayne, J. B. Rawlings, C. V. Rao, P. O. M. Scokaert - AUTOMATICA , 2000
"... Model predictive control is a form of control in which the current control action is obtained by solving, at each sampling instant, a finite horizon open-loop optimal control problem, using the current state of the plant as the initial state; the optimization yields an optimal control sequence and t ..."

Genetic Algorithms for Multiobjective Optimization: Formulation, Discussion and Generalization

by Carlos M. Fonseca, Peter J. Fleming , 1993

Multiobjective Optimization Using Nondominated Sorting in Genetic Algorithms

by N. Srinivas, Kalyanmoy Deb - Evolutionary Computation , 1994
"... In trying to solve multiobjective optimization problems, many traditional methods scalarize the objective vector into a single objective. In those cases, the obtained solution is highly sensitive to the weight vector used in the scalarization process and demands the user to have knowledge about t ..."

Since genetic algorithms(GAs) work with a population of points, it seems natural to use GAs in multiobjective optimization problems to capture a
