ROLLO (Reactor evOLutionary aLgorithm Optimizer)
ROLLO is an open-source Python package that applies evolutionary algorithm
techniques to optimize nuclear reactor design. It essentially couples the DEAP (Distributed Evolutionary Algorithms in Python) <https://deap.readthedocs.io/en/master/>_ evolutionary algorithm driver with
nuclear software.
ROLLO is nuclear-software agnostic, and designed to easily couple to any software.
Documentation on the usage of ROLLO is hosted at: https://gwenchee.github.io/rollo/
