Evolver is a software package that allows users to solve a wide variety of optimization problems using a genetic algorithm. Launched in 1989, it was the first commercially available genetic algorithm package for personal computers, and is part of the permanent collection at the Computer History Museum. The program was originally created by Matthew Jensen at Axcelis, Inc., and updated by Ayanna Howard. Evolver was acquired by Palisade Corporation, who continues to upgrade and sell the software to this day.
