1. A method comprising: determining that a criterion for inserting seed candidate solutions for an optimization problem has been met while an evolutionary algorithm based computer simulation is running and after a first selected generation of candidate solutions has been determined by the computer simulation; inserting, into a current generation of candidate solutions generated by the computer simulation, at least a first dataset that represents a first seed candidate solution in response to determining that the criterion for inserting seed candidate solutions has been met; and generating a solution for the optimization problem from the computer simulation based, at least in part, on a successive generation of candidate solutions produced after said inserting, into the current generation of candidate solutions generated by the computer simulation, at least the first dataset that represents the first candidate solution.
