Add README.md files for moeo/tutorial/Lesson{1-4}, smp/tutorial/Lesson{1-4},
and mo/tutorial/Lesson9 — these tutorials had no documentation.
Fix return 1 → return 0 in 28 tutorial main() functions across mo/ and
smp/ that unconditionally returned failure status.

# Master/Workers wrapping with eoEasyEA
|
|
|
|
Wraps a standard eoEasyEA with the ParadisEO-SMP parallel evaluation model,
|
|
applied to the Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP).
|
|
|
|
The QAP assigns facilities to locations to minimize cost (flow x distance).
|
|
The representation is a permutation.
|
|
|
|
## Running
|
|
|
|
From the `build/smp/tutorial/Lesson1` directory:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
./lesson1_eoEasyEA lesson1_eoEasyEA.param
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## How it works
|
|
|
|
The key idea: ParadisEO-SMP parallelizes evaluation by wrapping an existing
|
|
sequential algorithm. The algorithm code itself stays the same. `QAP.h`
|
|
defines the problem representation and evaluation, `QAPGA.h` defines the GA
|
|
operators, and `parserStruct.h` + `utils.h` handle parameter parsing and
|
|
instance loading. See also `lesson1_data.dat` for the problem instance.
