Abstract
In this article, we describe the implementation of a pool-based evolutionary algorithm on a cloud computing environment. We use the EvoSpace model for pool-based evolutionary algorithms (Pool-EA), which is designed to exploit cloud computing resources in order to generate better results than using a simple GA. The platform has been deployed in the cloud using Amazon services (Amazon EC2).
