Thus, it would greatly aid the decision maker if a series of multiple solutions were at hand prior to selecting the suitable solution. In this work, the weighted sum scalarization approach was used in conjunction with the Differential Evolution (DE) and the improved Hopfield Differential Evolution (Hopf-DE) algorithm. The DE and Hopf-DE approaches were then applied to the cement-bonded sand mould system to construct the approximate Pareto frontier, which was then employed to identify the best solution option. Some analysis was then performed on the computational results produced. Examination of the performance and the quality of the solutions obtained by the DE and Hopf-DE algorithms is presented. In addition, an analysis of the degree of conflict between the two objective functions with respect to the search space was carried out. The findings from this analysis are discussed in this paper. © 2014, © 2013 International Society of Management Science and Engineering Management. date: 2014 publisher: Taylor and Francis Ltd. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84927939812&doi=10.1080%2f17509653.2013.858416&partnerID=40&md5=dbcd4057b832c530809c742990e2c0fd id_number: 10.1080/17509653.2013.858416 full_text_status: none publication: International Journal of Management Science and Engineering Management volume: 9 number: 1 pagerange: 40-47 refereed: TRUE issn: 17509653 citation: Ganesan, T. and Elamvazuthi, I. and Zilati Ku Shaari, K. and Vasant, P.
