Abstract

This paper introduces a new mathematical model of the master-slave architecture for distributed evolutionary computations (EC). This model is validated using a concrete implementation based on the Distributed BEAGLE C++ framework. Results show that contrary to (current) popular belief, master-slave architectures are able to scale well over local area networks of workstations using off-the-shelf networking equipment. The main properties of the master-slave are also compared with those of the more mainstream island-model.

摘要

本文介绍了一种用于分布式进化计算（EC）的主从架构新数学模型。该模型通过基于分布式BEAGLE C++框架的具体实现进行了验证。结果表明，与（当前）普遍看法相反，使用现成的网络设备，主从架构能够在工作站局域网中良好扩展。还将主从架构的主要特性与更主流的岛模型的特性进行了比较。
