Abstract

In this chapter we add the benchmarker process which can sequentially spawn population_monitors and apply them to some specified problem/simulation. We also extend the database to include the experiment record, which the benchmarker uses to deposit the traces of the population’s evolutionary statistics, and to recover from crashes to continue with the specified experiment. The benchmarker can compose experiments by performing multiple evolutionary runs, and then produce statistical data and GNUplot ready files of the various evolutionary dynamics and averages calculated within the experiment.
