Many thanks to everyone who decided to participate in the Breeding Objects Experiment 01. My initial hypothesis was that configurators with artificial selection in a GA implemented may prove to be a better tool to navigate through solution spaces with larger amount of dimensions. In other words, genetic algorithms are better tools to look for […]

There where three sessions on MCPC devoted entirely to configurators. Before moving on to discuss them, let’s answer a question: “what is a configurator?”. The definition provided by Configurators Database is a good answer: “Simply put, a configurator is a software application for designing products exactly matching customers’ individual needs.” B2C online product configurators are […]
