  • System and method for time-efficient distributed search and decision-making using cooperative co-evolutionary algorithms executing in a distributed multi-agent architecture
    Patent number: 6882988
    Abstract: A method and architecture for efficiently solving complex distributed problems uses coevolutionary agents incorporating evolutionary algorithms located at different nodes in a distributed network. The coevolutionary agents conduct localized database searches and evolve at their respective nodes while sharing information with other coevolutionary agents working the same problem. Results or solutions to the problem posed are available at each network node containing a coevolutionary agent working the problem.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 5, 2001
    Date of Patent: April 19, 2005
    Assignee: Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute
    Inventors: Raj Subbu, Arthur Sanderson, Robert Graves
