Abstract

Combinatorial optimization problems of scheduling belongs in most cases to the NP-hard class. In this paper we propose a very effective method of construct parallel algorithms based on the island model of coevolutionary algorithm. We apply block properties, which enable the inter-island genetic operator to distribute calculations and shorten communication between processors.
