Abstract

Taking a lead from the multi-faceted definitions and roles of the term "meme" in memetics, a plethora of potentially rich memetic computing methodologies, frameworks and operational memeinspired algorithms have been developed with considerable success in several realworld domains in the last two decades. This article showcase several successful deployments of memetic computing methodologies for solving complex problems, from science, engineering to digital arts.
