Abstract :
The paper proposes a JADE-based A-Team environment as a middleware supporting the implementation and execution of population-based algorithms. The paper includes an overview of the JADE-based A-Team components and presents examples of the population-based architectures designed to obtain solutions to example combinatorial optimization problems including traveling salesman, resource-constrained project scheduling, vehicle routing and clustering problems. Conclusions focus on advantages of the JADE-based A-Team and on suggestions for further research
