Abstract

Genetic Algorithm (GA) is an evolutionary computing approach which is recurrently used in different areas of Computer Science i.e software testing, software metrics, software complexity, Management with functional areas like finance, marketing, production, planning, Physics, and Engineering etc..[1]. GA is one of the dominant research areas. In this paper the concept of GA and applications of GA in different areas are demonstrated. The study reveal that genetic algorithm is effectively used to solve the different research areas of software engineering like software testing and software metrics etc..
