Evolutionary genome engineering using a restriction–modification system
Modification of complex microbial cellular processes is often necessary to obtain organisms with particularly favorable characteristics, but such experiments can take many generations to achieve. In the present article, we accelerated the experimental evolution of Escherichia coli populations under selection for improved growth using one of the restriction-modification systems, which have shape...
متن کاملEngineering Optimization Using a Simple Evolutionary Algorithm
This paper presents a simple Evolution Strategy and three simple selection criteria to solve engineering optimization problems. This approach avoids the use of a penalty function to deal with constraints. Its main advantage is that it does not require the definition of extra parameters, other than those used by the evolution strategy. A self-adaptation mechanism allows the algorithm to maintain...
متن کاملEvolutionary Algorithms in Control System Engineering
This paper introduces the session describing the state-of-the-art in the application of evolutionary computation in control system engineering. Evolutionary methods such as genetic algorithms (GAs) and genetic programming (GP) are particularly suitable in problems for which conventional optimizers are inefficient or inappropriate, rather than simply as an alternative to conventional optimizatio...
متن کاملDealing with complexity: evolutionary engineering and genome shuffling.
Comparative analysis of the growing number of microbial genome sequences has shown a high plasticity of genomes and several mechanisms for the adaptation of microbial cells to changing environmental conditions have been discovered. By contrast, the underlying metabolic networks of microorganisms are under strict control and relatively rigid, which poses a significant challenge for rational meta...
