Abstract :
A parallel version of the evolutionary graph generation (EGG) system, called the distributed EGG (DEGG) system, was developed on a cluster of PCs using a message-passing interface (MPI). To demonstrate the capability of DEGG, it is applied to seeking the optimal design of various multipliers. Experimental results substantially show that DEGG consistently performs better than the EGG and known conventional designs
