Abstract :
This paper shows a successful application of evolutionary algorithms for the design and optimisation of complex real world digital circuit that is a 32-Step Traffic Lights Controller. It discusses two important features of electronic design through evolutionary processes; creativity and innovation. Results are compared to conventional design topologies; and attempt to analyse the evolved designs is presented.
