Dependence of evolutionary search on several key computational parameters. (a) Dependence on population volume (Popul = 4,000; 8,000; 12,000). (Other parameters were as follows: Reprod = 40%; Mut = 38%; EvalSum = 1,000,000; Cross = 2%; Power = 1,000,000.) Success rate is the percentage of runs achieving the desired fitness level. (b) The dependence on mutation rate (Mut = 40%, 32%, 24%, 16%).  (c)  The  dependence  on  crossover  rate (Cross = 0.5%, 2%, 10%, 30%). (50 runs for each point).
