IWLCS 2009 review

By Will Browne, Jan Drugowitsch and Jaume Bacardit
The 12th International Workshop on Learning Classifier Systems (LCS) successfully took place on July 9th, 2009 in Montreal, Canada as part of GECCO 09. Its ’success’ was measured in terms of number of attendees – multiple times the number of presenters, quality of papers, diversity of topics, originality [...]

Simdist: a distribution system for easy parallelization of evolutionary computation
[Jan 19, 2010 | Comments Off | Posted by Community ]

Abstract  This article introduces Simdist, a software tool for parallel execution of evolutionary algorithms (EAs) in a master-slave configuration on cluster architectures.
Clusters have become a cost-effective parallel solution, and the potential computational capabilities are phenomenal. However,
the transition from traditional R&D on a personal computer to parallel development and deployment can be a major step. Simdist
simplifies this transition considerably, by separating the task of distributing data across the cluster network from the actual
EA-related processing performed on the master and slave nodes. Simdist is constructed in the vein of traditional Unix command
line tools; it runs in a separate process and communicates with EA child processes via standard input and output. As a result,
Simdist is oblivious to the programming language(s) used in the EA, and the EA is similarly oblivious to the internals of
Simdist.
