We illustrate the method by applying it to a commercial software product, and show how the results can help assess the evolutionary capabilities of its architecture.
As suggested by G.C. Williams [ 27], the main advantage provided by sexual reproduction could consist in a substantial reduction in the evolutionary capability of sexual species.
Forty years' experience as a bacterial geneticist has taught me that bacteria possess many cognitive, computational and evolutionary capabilities unimaginable in the first six decades of the twentieth century.
These ancestral bilaterians had the evolutionary capability to cope with the consequences of becoming larger and lowering their surface-to-volume ratio (p. 310) even though larger animals must have ways of conveying oxygen and food to all their cells, removing these cells' wastes, integrating sensory impressions, and coordinating appropriate responses.
These distinctive characteristics of GSTs are evidence of an evolutionary vanguard, transforming the capabilities of the thioredoxin fold.
The approach uses the evolutionary parallel search capabilities of genetic algorithms to design the pattern layout of the lamps (luminaires), their mounting heights and their wattages.
While the performance on an external test set should be used to compare different models, the optimization performance is suited to compare the capability of the evolutionary algorithms to find the optimum of a given problem.
A tungsten chemical vapor deposition simulation application is presented to illustrate the capability of the proposed tools in facilitating an evolutionary simulation approach.
The wing dimorphisms of many insect species are commonly used to study physiological and evolutionary consequences of the trade-off between reproduction and flight capability [31], [52] [54].
