Evolutionary computation (EC) has gained increasing popularity in dealing with permutation-based combinatorial optimization problems (PCOPs). Traditionally, EC focuses on solving a single optimization task at a time. However, in complex multi-echelon supply chain networks (SCNs), there usually exist...
