We show that EAs can solve the graph coloring problem for bipartite graphs more efficiently by using dynamic optimization. In our approach the graph instance is given incrementally such that the EA can reoptimize its coloring when a new edge introduces a conflict. We show that, when edges are inserted in a way that preserves graph connectivity, Randomized Local Search (RLS) efficiently finds a proper 2-coloring for all bipartite graphs. This includes graphs for which RLS and other EAs need exponential expected time in a static optimization scenario. We investigate different ways of building up the graph by popular graph traversals such as breadth-first-search and depth-first-search and analyse the resulting runtime behavior. We further show that offspring populations (e. g. a (1 + {$\\lambda$}) RLS) lead to an exponential speedup in {$\\lambda$}. Finally, an island model using 3 islands succeeds in an optimal time of {$\\Theta$}(m) on every m-edge bipartite graph, outperforming offspring populations. This is the first example where an island model guarantees a speedup that is not bounded in the number of islands.","lang":"eng"}],"date_created":"2023-11-14T15:58:53Z","doi":"10.1145/3377930.3390174","publication_status":"published","author":[{"first_name":"Jakob","id":"102979","last_name":"Bossek","full_name":"Bossek, Jakob","orcid":"0000-0002-4121-4668"},{"first_name":"Frank","full_name":"Neumann, Frank","last_name":"Neumann"},{"last_name":"Peng","full_name":"Peng, Pan","first_name":"Pan"},{"full_name":"Sudholt, Dirk","last_name":"Sudholt","first_name":"Dirk"}],"publication_identifier":{"isbn":["978-1-4503-7128-5"]},"department":[{"_id":"819"}]}
