A genetic algorithm is used to search for linear binary codes with optimal minimum distance for a fixed length n and dimension k. Several modifications to the algorithm are compared to find an algorithm best suited to this application. The code is parallelized and mn on a multi-processor and speedup determined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
