[galib] question about galib extension

Hello,
I have been asked to implement the(μ + lambda) selection strategy with
GALIB. Basically, in each evolution, a new temporary population with the
same size as the original population would be created, both populations
should be merged and a new population would be created with the popsize best
individuals.
So basically for the selection of new population:
· For each generation, offspring are generated from μ parents and
crossed and mutated
· New population is the best μ individuals selected from the μ
parents and lambda offspring
· Implements elitism
I have been taking a look to the galib code of the steadystate algorithm and
I think this is precisely the strategy it implements. Should that be the
case, I do not need to extend GALIB, I just have to use the existing
steadyState algorithm with nReplacement = popsize, and I would be
implementing this selection strategy. Is this assumption correct, or am I
missing something here?
Thanks in advance,
Natalia Iglesias
