Algorithm 2

Outline of the evolutionary process (EP).
(1) and .
(2) Calculate the fitness value of each chromosome.
(3) Select the approximate chromosomes to be the parents
 of the next generation.
(4) Perform the crossover and mutation operators to create
 the children.
(5) Apply the pattern reduction (PR) operator to eliminate
 computations that are essentially redundant.
(6)
(7) If ( ) Synchronize the migration.
(8)  If , perform the emigration.
(9)  If , perform the immigration.
(10) Go to step 2 otherwise.
(11) End If
