A messy genetic algorithm (mGA), speculated by David Goldberg in 1989, is regarded as one of the most efficient method on those problems with Building Blocks (BB). While Hierarchical-if-and-only-if (HIFF) test problem is the basic example of a hierarchically consistent building-block problem. As it features hierarchical BB structure with multiple optima, HIFF test problem becomes the hardest test function for GA. This paper addresses the problem of HIFF based on messy genetic algorithm, which is a class of iterative optimization algorithm that makes use of a local search template, adaptive representation, and a decision theoretic sampling strategy and finally, conclusion is drawn and a short discussion is given.
