<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New";color:black">Benchmarking plays a critical role in the design and development of optimization algorithms. The way in which benchmark suites are set up thus influences the set of algorithms recommended
to practitioners and biases the goals of algorithm designers. The focus of this workshop is on benchmarking algorithms on problems with box constraints (i.e. upper and lower limits on the input variables defining the domain of the search space). In practical
applications, evaluating points outside of the domain is often impossible, or not sensible, and as such, should be avoided. However, in benchmarking as practiced today, problems are well-defined even outside of the stated parameter ranges, which translates
to the algorithms being able to safely ignore these ranges and operate on infeasible solutions.</span><span style="color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

<span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Courier New";color:black">Setting up box constraints represents the simplest type of constraints and gives rise to the so-called box-constrained problems. In this workshop, we will discuss in more detail how the presence
