At the beginning of the 1990s research started in how to combine soft comput ing with reconfigurable hardware in a quite unique way. One of the methods that was developed has been called evolvable hardware. Thanks to evolution ary algorithms researchers have started to evolve electronic circuits routinely. A number of interesting circuits - with features unreachable by means of con ventional techniques - have been developed. Evolvable hardware is quite pop ular right now; more than fifty research groups are spread out over the world. Evolvable hardware has become a part of the curriculum at some universi ties. Evolvable hardware is being commercialized and there are specialized conferences devoted to evolvable hardware. On the other hand, surprisingly, we can feel the lack of a theoretical background and consistent design methodology in the area. Furthermore, it is quite difficult to implement really innovative and practically successful evolvable systems using contemporary digital reconfigurable technology.

Industry Reviews

From the reviews: "This monograph gathers in one volume methods for evolvable hardware design with underlying and supporting fields and theories like soft computing, evolutionary biology and generalizations of computational machines. ! The book may serve very well as handbook for courses on evolvable systems." (Antoni Michalski, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1056, 2005)
