  abstract =     "In this paper we address the problem of program
                 discovery as defined by Genetic Programming. We have
                 two major results: First, by combining a hierarchical
                 crossover operator with two traditional single point
                 search algorithms: Simulated Annealing and Stochastic
                 Iterated Hill Climbing, we have solved some problems
                 with fewer fitness evaluations and a greater
                 probability of a success than Genetic Programming.
                 Second, we have managed to enhance Genetic Programming
                 by hybridizing it with the simple scheme of hill
                 climbing from a few individuals, at a fixed interval of
                 generations. The new hill climbing component has two
                 options for generating candidate solutions: mutation or
                 crossover. When it uses crossover, mates are either
                 randomly created, randomly drawn from the population at
                 large, or drawn from a pool of fittest individuals.",
