Abstract :
Over the past decade the strategic importance of order acceptance has been widely recognized in practice. This research studies the adaptation of estimation of distribution algorithm to solve the order acceptance decisions when capacity is limited. The results show that the four new estimation of distribution algorithms are all better than the genetic algorithm with local search.
