A new model for evolving the structure of a Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is proposed in this paper. The model is a hybrid technique that combines a Genetic Algorithm...
Deciding the appropriate population size and number of islands for distributed island-model genetic algorithms is often critical to the algorithm’s success. This paper outlines ...
This paper evaluates a parallel genetic algorithm (GA) on the line topology of heterogeneous computing resources. Evolution process of parallel GAs is investigated on two types of...
Automatic design of software architecture by use of genetic algorithms has already been shown to be feasible. A natural problem is to augment – if not replace – genetic algori...
A variant of two-dimensional packing problem was given in the GECCO’2008 competition. This paper describes the genetic algorithm that produced the best result and thus won the N...
