Genetic Algorithms Elitist Probabilistic of Degree 1, a generalization of Simulated Annealing

This paper describes an Abstract Genetic Algorithm (AGA) that generalizes and unifies Genetic Algorithms (GA) and Simulated Annealing (SA), showing that the latter belongs to a family of genetic algorithms which we have called elitist probabilistic.
