One main task in evolutionary multiobjective optimization (EMO) is to obtain a suitable finite size approximation of the Pareto front which is the image of the solution set, termed the Pareto set, of a given multiobjective optimization problem. In the technical literature, the characteristic of the desired approximation is commonly expressed by closeness to the Pareto front and a sufficient spread of the solutions obtained. In this paper, we first make an effort to show by theoretical and empirical findings that the recently proposed Averaged Hausdorff (or Delta(p)-) indicator indeed aims at fulfilling both performance criteria for bi-objective optimization problems. In the second part of this paper, standard EMO algorithms combined with a specialized archiver and a postprocessing step based on the Delta(p) indicator are introduced which sufficiently approximate the Delta(p)-optimal archives and generate solutions evenly spread along the Pareto front.
