Computational approached to studying evolution in biology

Latest revision as of 21:36, 16 July 2009

I hav a lot of Bedau papers. I like that he is using GAs to research evolution. computational/theoretical/modeling approach to biology. Still have to learn more. It is a little hard to place him, I guess that reflects well on him.
