Interest in Genetic algorithms is expanding rapidly. This paper reviews software environments for programming Genetic Algorithms (GAs). As background, we initially preview genetic algorithms' models and their programming. Next we classify GA software environments into three main
categories: Application-oriented, Algorithm-oriented and Tool-Kits. For each category of GA programming environment we review their common features and present a case study of a leading environment.
