+FGA is a simple yet powerful implementation of a general genetic algorithm, and
+provides many types of crossover and selection procedures.
+
+It is suitable to solve mathematical problems such as combinatorical
+optimization ones, as well as to build artificial life simulations.
+
+Written in C++, the library is released under the terms of the GNU Lesser
+General Public License, and it's easy to incorporate in other applications.
+
+A parallel version of the algorithm (using POSIX threads) is included in order
+to take advantage of multi-processor environments.
