Abstract

We present some results on optimization of cost functions using a population of parallel processors. Based on a simulated evolutionary search strategy diploid recombination is introduced as a means for maintaining variability in computational problems with large numbers of local extrema. The new strategy is compared to some traditional algorithms simulating evolution.
