On the Impact of the Migration Topology on the Island Model
Parallel Global Optimization Algorithms (PGOA) provide an efficient way of dealing with hard optimization problems. One method of parallelization of GOAs that is frequently applie...

A parallel evolutionary algorithm for unconstrained binary quadratic problems
In this paper an island model is described for the unconstrained Binary Quadratic Problem (BQP), which can be used with up to 2500 binary variables. Our island model uses a master...

GPU-based island model for evolutionary algorithms
The island model for evolutionary algorithms allows to delay the global convergence of the evolution process and encourage diversity. However, solving large size and time-intensiv...

Improving Evolutionary Algorithms with Multi-representation Island Models
Abstract. We present an island model that uses different representations in each island. The model transforms individuals from one representation to another during migrations. We ...

Is the island model fault tolerant?
In this paper, we present a study on the fault tolerance nature of the island model when applied to Genetic Algorithms. Parallel and distributed models have been extensively appli...
