Abstract

Due to the evolutionary nature of humans, systems are required to be continuously replaced because of their inability to meet or adapt to the changing needs of humans. Such replacements are costly and time consuming. Therefore this paper proposes a cheaper and quicker alternative, which is to embed self-evolving mechanisms into a multi-agent environment, thus giving the agents in the environment the ability to either meet or exceed the way in which humans evolve.
