Abstract

We consider the deployment of island-based evolutionary algorithms (EAs) on unstable networks whose nodes exhibit correlated failures. We use the sandpile model in order to induce such complex, correlated failures in the system. A performance analysis is conducted, comparing the results obtained in both correlated and non-correlated scenarios for increasingly large volatility rates. It is observed that simple island-based EAs have a significant performance degradation in the correlated scenario with respect to its uncorrelated counterpart. However, the use of self-\(\star \) properties (self-scaling and self-sampling in this case) allows the EA to increase its resilience in this harder scenario, leading to a much more gentle degradation profile.

It must be noted that these so-called micro-failures are not intended to represent any real phenomenon, but are just used as a means to introduce failure interdependencies.
