โฆ Synopsis
The use of a numerical hill climbing technique in the solution of two chemical engineering problems is described. The first problem is concerned with designing a chemical plant for minimum cost per unit yield. The second problem deals with a method of obtaining the beat temperature protile in a chemical reaction vessel by assuming the vessel to be divided into a number of stirred tanks.
A brief review is given of methods of finding maxima or minima of functions when the variables are not completely independent but subject to constraints.

This paper presents a convergence analysis for the problem of consistent labelling using genetic search. The work builds on a recent empirical study of graph matching where we showed that a Bayesian consistency measure could be e$ciently optimised using a hybrid genetic search procedure which incorp
