Rand Buffers: it is a calculation buffer to evaluate individuals. Should be greater than the population size

Population Size: it is the number of individuals in the population. Should be an even number greater or equal than 2.

Objectives: it is the number of objective functions involved in the optimization. These objective functions are going to be minimized.

Design Variables: it is the number of design variables to use in the optimization.

CPUs: RMOP is designed to run in parallel, this field defines the number of processors assigned to the optimizer.
