Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) using the Parallel Evolution library

This is an implementation of the Standard PSO 2011 (SPSO-2011) for use in an ecosystem of algorithms running in parallel. The parallel_evolution-lib provides utility functions for running the evolutionary algorithms in parallel and exchanging candidate solutions between them, besides that it defines how and when the algorithms communicate with each other and an unified way of reading configurations, log levels and reporting results.

Configuration File

Read algorithm's configurations from a configuration file. The one parallel_evolurion-lib will pass to the pso_init() function.

These are the configurations:

int pso_max_iterations = 5000; 

...
