Solving Geometrical Place Problems by using Evolutionary Algorithms

Geometrical place can be sometimes difficult to find by applying mathematical methods. Evolutionary algorithms deal with a population of solutions. This population (initially random generated) is evolved using genetic operators. Population obtained after a specified number of iterations will contain solutions which (very likely) accomplish the geometrical place problem conditions. Geometrical place usually consists in more than one solution. By applying evolutionary algorithms to geometrical place problems multiple solutions can be obtained in a single run.
