 Genetic algorithm - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
There are also parallel implementations of genetic algorithms that use computers as 'islands' and implement migrations of populations from one computer to another over a network.
They are usually applied to domains where it is hard to design a computational fitness function, for example, evolving images, music, artistic designs and forms to fit user's aesthetic preference.
John Holland was the pioneering founder of much of today's work in genetic algorithms, which has moved on from a purely theoretical subject (though based on computer modelling) to provide methods which can be used to actually solve some difficult problems today.

"Blending aspects of philosophy, computer science, artificial intelligence, biology andcomputer gaming, Grand attempts to define life, discuss the nature of the human souland demonstrate how it is possible to create entities that demand to be called both livingand intelligent.
A tall order indeed, and to wonderful effect, Grand draws heavily on his experience writing computer code (he developed the popular computer game Creatures, e in which cyberbeings "live," learn and reproduce).

This volume, written by experts in the field, gives a modern, rigorous and unified presentation of the application of biological concepts to the design of novel computing machines and algorithms.
This book studies the construction of machines and algorithms based on natural processes: biological evolution, which gives rise to genetic algorithms, cellular development, which leads to self-replicating and self-repairing machines, and the nervous system in living beings, which serves as the underlying motivation for artificial learning systems, such as neural networks.
It is mainly applied to computer hardware design.

This seminar will survey work in computing that has drawn inspiration from biology, with a focus on security, survivability and optimization.
Computer scientists can learn a great deal by observing nature and adopting biological approaches to problem solving.
Biological systems tend to be decentralized, adaptive and environmentally aware, and as a result they have survivability, scalability and flexibility properties well beyond the best human-engineered systems.

JPL’s Bio-inspired Technologies and Systems group is involved in the development of several soft computing technologies including artificial neural networks, evolutionary computing, intelligent associative memories, and optoelectronic correlators.
In spite of all the recent advances in digital computing, nanotechnology, smart materials, control algorithms, and robotic designs so far; today’s planetary exploration rovers deployed by NASA have yet to acquire enough agility and autonomy to be free of frequent human intervention for decision-making.
Animals and insects have their highly evolved intelligent sensory systems directly coupled to their brains: analog, highly parallel computing architectures, well-linked to their dexterous limbs and wings endowed with excellent motor control.

 Biologically-Inspired Computing at the University of Maryland
Sipper's major research interests include evolutionary computation, bio-inspired computing, and artificial life; minor interests include cellular computing, cellular automata, and artificial self-replication, along with a smidgen of evolutionary robotics, artificial neural networks, and fuzzy logic.
Once an order is computed, rules are generated to enforce this order in the course of self-assembly via the use of memory variables and local communication.
Research methods are developed and discussed for implementing a novel, general, artificial evolution model and quantitatively studying its variations and behavior, for implementing multistage evolution toward debris-cleaning, for increasing the complexity of self-replication, and for the co-evolution of both structure and rules.

Another one has arisen has appeared in the last 15 years or so, is inspired by the biology of the immune system, and is the subject of this book.
Biology is used for the inspiration of the computational models, and as such they need not reflect entirely what is true in the biological case.

 Book compiled
Self-replication and universal computing is the subject of the chapter “Arithmetic Operations with Self-Replicating Loops” written by Enrico Petraglio, Gianluca Tempesti and Jean-Marc Henry, who are experts in embryonic electronics, bio-inspired machines and evolving hardware.
Thus in “Computing Inside the Billiard Ball Model” Jérome Durand-Lose applies his expertise in reversible computing, automata models of transition phenomena and grain sorting in sand piles to derive intriguing results related to reversible cellular automata models of collision-based computing.
It covers such diverse subjects as conservative computation in billiard ball models and its cellular-automaton analogues, implementation of computing devices in lattice gases, Conway's Game of Life and discrete excitable media, theory of particle machines, computation with solitons, logic of ballistic computing, phenomenology of computation, and self-replicating universal computers.
