Design, Architecture, and Engineering with Grammatical Evolution

Since its inception, Grammatical Evolution has had a rich history with design applications. The use of a formal grammar provides a convenient platform with which users can specify rules for design. Two main aspects of design evolution are the grammatical representation and the objective fitness evaluation.
