Abstract

In this paper we present a study of parallel and distributed genetic programming models and their relationships with the bloat phenomenon. The experiments that we have performed have also allowed us to find an interesting link between the number of processes, subpopulations and the model we should use when applying parallelism to GP. We study the synchronous and asynchronous version of the island-model in GP domain.
