Package net.sourceforge.cilib.entity.topologies Description

This package contains different topology implementations. Within CIlib, all Entity objects are capable of being contained within Topology instances.

A topology is a structure through which the algorithm operates with Entitys. As a result, this data structure is a key component to any algorithm.

Currently, the topologies are designed mainly for populations of entity instances. The expansion of the topology into a structure that can be used within applications of other algorithm types is being developed.
