This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Evolutionary Multi-Criterion Optimization, EMO 2013 held in Sheffield, UK, in March 2013. The 57 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 98 submissions. The papers are grouped in topical sections on plenary talks; new horizons; indicator-based methods; aspects of algorithm design; pareto-based methods; hybrid MCDA; decomposition-based methods; classical MCDA; exploratory problem analysis; product and process applications; aerospace and automotive applications; further real-world applications; and under-explored challenges.

Challenged by urbanization and increasing travel needs, existing transportation systems need new mobility paradigms. In this article, we present the emerging concept of autonomous mobility-on-demand, whereby centrally orchestrated fleets of autonomous vehicles provide mobility service to customers. We provide a comprehensive review of methods and tools to model and solve problems related to autonomous mobility-on-demand systems. Specifically, we first identify problem settings for their analysis and control, from both operational and planning perspectives. We then review modeling aspects, including transportation networks, transportation demand, congestion, operational constraints, and interactions with existing infrastructure. Thereafter, we provide a systematic analysis of existing solution methods and performance metrics, highlighting trends and trade-offs. Finally, we present various directions for further research.

RASCHER, GEORGE J.THE AUTHOR graduated from the United States Merchant Marine Academy
Kings Point in June 1951 receiving his Bachelor of Science degree and Third Assistant Engineer's license. Following his graduation the author sailed actively as a marine engineer aboard ships of the merchant marine until he entered into active naval service in March 1953 as a Lieutenant Junior Grade. During his tour of active naval duty the author served as engineering officer of the USS Douglas H. Fox (DD 779) for a period of eighteen months. When he was released to inactive duty in February 1955 he assumed a position with Hagan Corporation as a field engineer. In this capacity he has been engaged for the past six months in setting up the automatic boiler combustion and feed-water control systems of the USS Saratoga (CVA 60).

The nature of the icebreaking process imposes certain unique loads on the propulsion systems of ships applied to such service. Propulsion systems in present use are not totally dependable when subjected to these loads. Consequently, these systems are subject to inefficient operation in addition to possible failure of propellers, shafting or other system components. To better the understanding of these loads, a brief description of the icebreaking process is presented and methods for calculating load torques are developed. Speed of advance of the ship through an ice field is chosen as a performance index for the propulsion system and used to derive a number of propulsion system performance requirements. An introduction is given to methods which utilize steady state, quasi-steady state and dynamic techniques for synthesizing a propulsion system which meets given performance requirements.
