The Visualization of Genetic Algorithms - Related Work
Genetic Algorithms are robust search algorithms capable of finding multiple solutions to complex problems. In order to ensure that the algorithm is working correctly, it is necessary to examine the steps involved in its execution and the results produced at each stage. It is proposed that Software Visualization may be one technique that could support this task. This review examines a number of Software Visualization systems, discusses the key features that may prove useful for visualizing Genetic Algorithms, and presents some screen representations that illustrate some possible design configurations.
