Abstract
The use of Elitism within Genetic Algorithms is well documented allowing the best solution from any generation to be carried across to the new population allowing it to survive intact. This paper is looking at a similar concept of using Elitism across solutions rather than just each of the generations. The consideration is to use previous solutions to improve the fitness of the current population when applied to a similar problem. Usage within our context is for the placement of data object replicas within a cellular phone network for the benefit of the user base.
