Abstract :
In this paper we show a novel and efficient design of a compact Genetic Algorithm (cGA) in Hardware. This design presents the following features: modularity, concurrency, minimal resource consumption, real time execution, and high scalability properties. According to the obtained results, we show that it is viable to have this search algorithm in Hardware to be used in real time applications.
