Project Name: Using GPU implementations in GA-lapagos to test cGA versus Island Implementations ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Project Area: GAs, GPU, Parallel ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Target: Probably me summer 2020 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ People Needs and Allocation: Graduate, Myself ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Skills: Programming, GPU CUDA, Linux ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Description: Build an implementation of both Island and cGA based parallel systems for GAs within GA-lapagos. Want to compare the quality vs execution time of both to see which is better for (not sure the problem). Also want to look at the idea of the cGA structure and the paper below to test out amplication vs. non-application. Probably, two papers? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ References: [1] Construction of arbitrarily strong amplifiers of natural selection using evolutionary graph theory [2] {Cellular genetic algorithms}, author={Alba, Enrique and Dorronsoro, Bernab{\'e}}, ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Resources:
