Claim One:
1. A computer-implemented method of determining an asset disposition plan for an asset portfolio including a plurality of assets while optimizing at least one objective, the computer-implemented method comprising: obtaining a genome population having a first set of vectors, each vector in the first set of vectors representing an asset disposition plan, numerically defining a disposition of each asset in the asset portfolio; obtaining a plurality of objectives with respect to the asset disposition plan, the objectives including generation of a cash amount and each objective associated with a weight indicating the importance of the objective; and modifying the genome population by use of a genetic algorithm, including: determining a fitness for each of the vectors in the genome population using objective values, the objective values determined by applying objective functions to the vectors, each object value weighted by the corresponding weights; and introducing new vectors in the genome population derived from other vectors including the first set of vectors, until at least one of the vectors in the genome population represents an asset disposition plan, such that disposition of each asset in accordance with the asset disposition plan most nearly generates the cash amount while optimizing the objectives.
