Scaling Populations of a Genetic Algorithm for Job Shop Scheduling Problems Using MapReduce
Inspired by Darwinian evolution, a genetic algorithm (GA) approach is one of the popular heuristic methods for solving hard problems, such as the Job Shop Scheduling Problem (JSSP...

Behavior of finite population variable length genetic algorithms under random selection
In this work we provide empirical evidence that shows how a variable-length genetic algorithm (GA) can naturally evolve shorter average size populations. This reduction in chromos...

Efficient and scalable parallel reconstruction of sibling relationships from genetic data in wild populations
Wild populations of organism are often difficult to study in their natural settings. Often, it is possible to infer mating information about these species by genotyping the offspri...
