Summary

This book is the result of several years of research trying to better characterize parallel genetic algorithms (pGAs) as a powerful tool for optimization, search, and learning.We here offer a presentation structured in three parts. The first one is targeted to the algorithms themselves, discussing their components, the physical parallelism, and best practices in using and evaluating them.A second part deals with theoretical results relevant to the research with pGAs. Here we stress several issues related to actual and common pGAs.A final third part offers a very wide study of pGAs as problem solvers, addressing domains such as natural language processing, circuits design, scheduling, and genomics. With such a diverse analysis, we intend to show the big success of these techniques in Science and Industry.
