A genetic algorithm arrangement comprising a processor array controlled by a control arrangement through a number of iterations. The processor array comprises a plurality of processing nodes interconnected by an interconnection network for transferring messages among the processing nodes. In accordance with the control arrangement, the processing nodes are first enabled to establish a genome array comprising a plurality of entries, each processing node having a selected number of entries, each entry receiving a genome. The processing nodes are then enabled to perform an evaluation operation in connection with each genome to generate an evaluation score associated with each genome. The processing nodes are enabled to generate a threshold value in response to the evaluations for the respective genomes. Surviving genomes are then identified by the processing nodes as those genomes in respective portions of the genome array response to the threshold value. The processing nodes then are enabled to propagate the surviving genomes through the entries of the genome array as a function of their respective evaluation scores. The control portion then enables the processing nodes perform a mating operation in connection with a genome in each entry of the genome array and a genome in a respective randomly-selected entry of the genome array. The control portion enables the processing nodes to perform these operations through a series of iterations.
