Abstract

In this paper we present new Java framework for Gridification of Genetic Algorithms. The framework enables easy implementation of Genetic Algorithms and also enables researchers easy and stable usage of the Grid for their deployment. The design of the framework was based on principles that make it very open and extensible. The Grid components use pure Java implementation of Grid job submission and retrieval for the Glite grid middleware by using Web Services (WS). The framework was tested on the SEEGRID testbed. Using this framework we have developed a pilot application for optimizing data warehousing VIS problem.
