Does anybody know what happened to the line of study looking into insect algorithms that would improve each time an insect died and was replaced with a different one. Somebody was doing it at Martin Marietta about 2 years ago...

A lot of work has been done on Genetic Algorithms. John Holland did some good work in 1974, and an new book a different author is called "Genetic Algorithms". I think it was published in 1989 by a professor froma southern university (Alabama?).

There have been several International Conferences on the topic of Genetic Algrithms. Lots going on in this area right now. Don McMillan __ . .

Maybe it's the same I flipped through this morning in a book shop. It's called "Genetic Algorithms in Search, Optimization & Machine Learning" David E. Goldberg Addison-Wesley (Reading, MA ...) 1989 I couldn't read it totally :-) But I think it might be interesting. There is some source-code for programmers.
