Unlike most uses  of Genetic Programming, this book evolves sequences of provable  transformations rather than actual programs. It demonstrates that the  benefits of this approach are twofold: first, the time required for  evaluating a population is drastically reduced, and second, the  transformations can subsequently be used to prove that the new program  is functionally equivalent to the original. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eAutomatic Re-engineering of Software Using Genetic Programming\u003c\/em\u003e  shows that there are applications where it is more practical to use GP  to assist with software engineering rather than to entirely replace  it. It also demonstrates how the author isolated aspects of a problem  that were particularly suited to GP, and used traditional software  engineering techniques in those areas for which they were adequate.  \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eAutomatic Re-engineering of Software Using Genetic Programming\u003c\/em\u003e  is an excellent resource for researchers in this exciting new field.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 2012-11-05\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e ISBN-10: 9781461370949\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9781461370949\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4615-4631-3\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 140\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44359153647756,"sku":"9781461370949","price":99.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9781461370949.jpg?v=1755102755","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9781461370949","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
