Self-configurable memetic algorithm by Le, Minh Nghia

“…However, with so many population-based and individual-based procedures available for hybridizing, it is a tedious task, if not impossible, to design in advance an effective memetic algorithm for a given problem at hand. Furthermore, when high-fidelity analysis codes are used for evaluating design solutions in the optimization process, it is not uncommon for the single simulation process to take minutes, hours to days of supercomputer time to compute. …”
