Results from TSP test on Social-Based Genetic Algorithms (SBGA) were presented. Results were encouraging in Social-Based Genetic Algorithms (SBGA) performs better in finding best fit solutions of generations in different populations than the Simple Standard Genetic Algorithm.}, journal = {Journal of Computer Science}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
