Abstract

We present computer simulation of population evolution at different locations, with migration between the sites. Calculations are based on the Penna model, with suitable modifications for the migration. We present some examples of the population growth for different scenario of the migration rules. Calculations requires about 100M Bmemory for 106 population which is a minimum necessary to get reliable statistics. Typical running time for 3000 iteration steps is several hours for HP S2000 machine. The problem is very suitable for parallelization with geometrical decomposition, especially for small migration limit.
