Scalable Distributed Evolutionary Algorithm Orchestration using Docker Containers

•Three island-based dynamic optimisation managers that governing the number of islands for multi-objective genetic algorithms.•A Complete serverless cloud deployment architecture of the Island Model of genetic algorithms.•Critical analysis of the applicability of these three extensions. Identification towards advantages and limitations of each proposed manager.•Experimental evaluation of the analysed and proposed managers based on real-world discrete and process manufacturing scenarios.
