hi, I've to implement island model genetic algorithm using MPI. the problem is I've already implemented a parallel Genetic Algorithm using MPI where i divide population into subpopulations and distribute it 2 all the processors, and each processors performs sequential GA on its subpopulation after some iteration these processors migrates its best chromosome toe ach other and again proceed.My problem is that i dnt understand what exactly is island model? what island represents?? how shud i implement it.. Plz reply soon.. thanx
Well, this list isn't likely to help you (although it might -- a number of us including myself play with GAs). Google Is Your Friend (GIYF). "genetic algorithm island model" yields dozens of obviously relevant hits, including ones on parallel program design. See e.g. http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/corcoran94parallel.html but this is just one of a LOT of hits. rgb -- Robert G.
