Gilles Sadowski commented on MATH-1643:
---------------------------------------

bq. [...] the best result will be accepted as a solution.

I believe that all the population(s) should be considered as the result of a GA 
library.
It's up to the caller to (trivially) extract one (or more) individual 
chromosomes for further processing by the application.

> Current implementation of Genetic Algorithm does not use *multi-threading* 
> during optimization process. A multi-threading approach would be required to 
> enable usage of multiple cores of user CPU. This would also enable 
> implementation of *parallel GA* with multiple populations where each 
> population would converge independently, and the best result will be accepted 
> as a solution.
