Abstract
Some examples are directed to selecting at least one candidate solution from a first plurality of candidate solutions that has converged on a suboptimal solution during a computer simulation. The computer simulation tests fitness of the first plurality of candidate solutions for an optimization problem. Some examples are further direct to storing a copy of the at least one candidate solution, performing a cataclysm on the first plurality of candidate solutions, and generating a second plurality of candidate solutions. Some examples are further direct to integrating the copy of the at least one candidate solution into the second plurality of candidate solutions after performing of one or more additional computer simulations that test the fitness of the second plurality of candidate solutions for the optimization problem.
