Not being familiar with NSGA, I would find it very interesting if your link provided some context/example as to why this intriguing problem matters in the real world. I'm sure it does, I just can't fathom it and googling "NSGA" comes up with what appear to be very unrelated results
Well, the engine should be pretty generic and applicable to any problem that can be solved with multi-objective optimization. Wikipedia provides some real-life examples: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-objective_optimization#E...

I, personally, use it to generate stock/ETF portfolios with my app https://wealthpic.info/
