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.

> Project: Commons Math
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Affects Versions: 3.6.1
> Reporter: AVIJIT BASAK
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 4.0
>
>
> 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.
