The prof was my supervisor during this summer while I did undergraduate research(which by the way was insanely fun.) Genetic Algorithms work pretty well for extremely large-space problems, like any NP-Complete problem. One thing I found in my research was that a single population of genetic entities can result in stagnation, so, use multiple populations, each seeded differently, and have a small rate of migration. As well, take a look at data-mining systems. They are in effect an expert system, that add new rules or knowledge. Pretty interesting stuff there.
