In this article we discuss relations between the so-called complex networks and dynamics of evolutionary algorithms. The main aim of this article is to investigate whether it is possible to model (or vizualize) evolutionary dynamics as complex networks, whose connections will represent interactions amongst the individuals during all generations. Our simulations are based on selected evolutionary algorithms (2 algorithms in 6 versions) and test functions (4 out of 17). Data obtained through the simulations were processed graphically as well as statistically.
