Description-en: File subsets extractor based on genetic algorithms
Genetic Algorithm File Fitter (gaffitter) is a command-line software
written in C++ that extracts --via genetic algorithm-- subsets of an
input list of files/directories that best fit the given volume size
(target), such as CD, DVD and others.
.
gaffitter provides an intelligent manner (thanks to Genetic Algorithm)
to minimize the error between the desired target size and the selected
candidates of files/directories. Gaffitter highlights:
.
* Uses a global meta-heuristic (Genetic Algorithm search).
* The command-line interface provides high integration (via pipe) with
other tools, i.e. works as a "filter".
* Allow the user to enter 'size identifier' pairs directly instead
of file/dir names.
* Pretty configurable. gaffitter have many input parameters to
control/adjust its behavior (including GA params).
