Cardumen Configuration

[VidmS]

Hello,

I wanted to ask you, what is the optimal configuration of starting ASTOR in the CARDUMEN mode?

I think about the values:
-maxgenerations
-maxtime
-population

Do I need to set population to more than 1 at Cardumen, does it makes difference?

Hi @VidmS

what is the optimal configuration of starting ASTOR in the CARDUMEN mode?

We have not studied yet which would be the optimal config. Note that maxgenerations and maxtime are related (we used to put a very large number of maxGen, and a maxtime of 2 or 3 hrs).

About the -population we have runned our experiments with a value of 1. We have not done -beyond some tests- any experiment that tries other values.

Hello @martinezmatias,

thanks for your fast answer. I read your paper about Cardumen. How do you configure the "maximum number of tried template instance: 1000"? I cannot find this option in the astor.properties file.
