• abstract = "The usual approach to address the brittleness of machine code in evolution is to constrain mutation and crossover to ensure syntactic closure. In the novel approach presented here we use no constraints on the operators, they all work blindly on the binaries in memory, but we instead encapsulate the code and trap all resulting exceptions. The new approach presented here for machine code evolution on CISC architectures is based on the observation that modern CPUs can cope with incorrect programmes and report errors to the operating system. This way it is possible to return to very simple genetic operators with the objective of increased performance. Furthermore the instruction set used by evolved programmes is no longer limited by the genetic programming system but only by the CPU it runs on. The mapping between evolution platform and execution platform becomes almost complete, ensuring correct low-level behaviour of all CPU functions.",
