This paper covers the design of an Evolutionary Algorithm (EA), which should be able to synthesize a multi-objective H2/H controller. It will be shown how a system can be expressed as Matrix Inequalities (MI) and these will then be used in the design of the EA. The main objective is to use EA to examine whether a multi-objective H2/H controller is feasible, and if so, how the optimal multi-objective controller might be found.
