Abstract :
Presents an alternative model in the field of evolutionary computation. The presented model is, like other models in evolutionary computation, based on the principle of natural selection. The difference between the presented model and the other models is a difference in the interpretation of the principle of natural selection. Traditional models in evolutionary computation provide only a partial interpretation of the principle of natural selection, while the presented model is based on a more complete interpretation. As a consequence, the presented model can deal with the problem of local optima in a novel way
