Abstract
A method, computer program storage medium and system that implement evolutionary algorithms on heterogeneous computers; in which a central process resident in a central computer delegates subpopulations of individuals of similar fitness from a central pool to separate processes resident on peripheral computers where they evolve for a certain number of generations after which they return to the central pool before the delegation is repeated.
