Abstract

Evolutionary computation is notably one of the fast growing fields of research and application and is becoming pervasive in several streams of science and engineering. This paper reviews its origin, investigates the reason for its growth and widespread applicability. The reasons for existence and advantages of other paradigms are also discussed. The goal of this paper is to underline root-causes necessary for successful deployment of evolutionary methods in diverse applications and challenges that need to be addressed in any such endeavour.
