  • Method and system for implementing evolutionary algorithms
    Patent number: 7444309
    Abstract: A method, computer program storage medium and system that implement evolutionary algorithms on heterogeneous computers; in which a central process resident in a central computer delegates subpopulations of individuals of similar fitness from a central pool to separate processes resident on peripheral computers where they evolve for a certain number of generations after which they return to the central pool before the delegation is repeated.

  • Method and system for implementing evolutionary algorithms
    Publication number: 20040210545
    Abstract: A method that efficiently implements evolutionary algorithms on heterogeneous computer clusters (FIG. 4); in which method a central process delegates subpopulations of individuals of similar fitness (211) to separate computers where they evolve for a certain number of generations (212) after which they return to the central pool before the delegation is repeated.
