In attempts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, many alternatives to manufacturing have been recommended from a number of international organisations. Although challenges will arise, remanufacturing has the ability to transform ecological and business value. Computational Intelligence in Remanufacturing introduces various computational intelligence techniques that are applied to remanufacturing-related issues, results, and lessons from specific applications while highlighting future development and research. This book is an essential reference for students, researchers, and practitioners in mechanical, industrial, and electrical engineering.
