/**

 * Factory class providing convenient methods for creating properly configured {@link EASystem} instances.

 * 

 * <p>EASystemFactory simplifies the complex process of assembling all the components required for evolutionary

 * algorithms by providing pre-configured factory methods that handle the initialization and wiring of selection

 * strategies, mutation operators, combination policies, and fitness evaluators.

 * 

 * <p>The factory abstracts away the complexity of manually creating and configuring:

 * <ul>

 * <li><strong>Selection policy resolvers</strong>: Components that match selection strategies to implementations</li>

 * <li><strong>Mutation policy resolvers</strong>: Components that handle different mutation strategies</li>

 * <li><strong>Chromosome combinators</strong>: Components responsible for crossover operations</li>

 * <li><strong>Replacement strategy handlers</strong>: Components managing population replacement</li>

 * <li><strong>Fitness evaluators</strong>: Components handling fitness computation strategies</li>

 * </ul>

 * 

 * <p>Factory methods are organized by evaluation strategy:

 * <ul>

 * <li><strong>Synchronous evaluation</strong>: Traditional single-threaded or parallel evaluation using

 * {@link EAConfiguration}</li>

 * <li><strong>Bulk asynchronous evaluation</strong>: Batch processing for external services or GPU acceleration using

 * {@link EAConfigurationBulkAsync}</li>

 * <li><strong>Custom evaluation</strong>: User-provided {@link FitnessEvaluator} implementations</li>

 * </ul>

 * 

 * <p>Common usage patterns:

 * 

 * <pre>{@code

 * // Simple synchronous evaluation with default thread pool

 * EAConfiguration<Double> config = EAConfigurationBuilder.<Double>builder()

 * 		.chromosomeSpecs(chromosomeSpec)

 * 		.parentSelectionPolicy(Tournament.of(3))

 * 		.combinationPolicy(SinglePointCrossover.build())

 * 		.mutationPolicies(List.of(RandomMutation.of(0.1)))

 * 		.replacementStrategy(Elitism.builder().offspringRatio(0.8).build())

 * 		.build();

 * 

 * EAExecutionContext<Double> context = EAExecutionContextBuilder.<Double>builder()

 * 		.populationSize(100)

 * 		.fitness(genotype -> computeFitness(genotype))

 * 		.termination(Generations.of(100))

 * 		.build();

 * 

 * EASystem<Double> eaSystem = EASystemFactory.from(config, context);

 * 

 * // Asynchronous evaluation for expensive fitness functions

 * EAConfigurationBulkAsync<Double> asyncConfig = EAConfigurationBulkAsyncBuilder.<Double>builder()

 * 		.chromosomeSpecs(chromosomeSpec)

 * 		.parentSelectionPolicy(Tournament.of(3))

 * 		.combinationPolicy(SinglePointCrossover.build())

 * 		.mutationPolicies(List.of(RandomMutation.of(0.1)))

 * 		.replacementStrategy(Elitism.builder().offspringRatio(0.8).build())

 * 		.fitnessBulkAsync(genotypes -> evaluateBatch(genotypes))

 * 		.build();

 * 

 * EASystem<Double> asyncSystem = EASystemFactory.from(asyncConfig, context);

 * 

 * // Custom evaluation strategy

 * FitnessEvaluator<Double> customEvaluator = new CachedFitnessEvaluator<>(baseFitness, cacheSize);

 * EASystem<Double> customSystem = EASystemFactory.from(config, context, executorService, customEvaluator);

 * }</pre>

 * 

 * <p>Factory method selection guide:

 * <ul>

 * <li><strong>Fast fitness functions</strong>: Use synchronous methods with {@link EAConfiguration}</li>

 * <li><strong>Expensive fitness functions</strong>: Use asynchronous methods with {@link EAConfigurationBulkAsync}</li>

 * <li><strong>External fitness computation</strong>: Use custom evaluator methods</li>

 * <li><strong>GPU acceleration</strong>: Use bulk async methods for batch processing</li>

 * </ul>

 * 

 * <p>Thread pool considerations:

 * <ul>

 * <li><strong>Default behavior</strong>: Uses {@link ForkJoinPool#commonPool()} for automatic parallelization</li>

 * <li><strong>Custom thread pools</strong>: Provide specific {@link ExecutorService} for resource control</li>

 * <li><strong>Single-threaded</strong>: Use {@link java.util.concurrent.Executors#newSingleThreadExecutor()}</li>

 * <li><strong>Resource management</strong>: Caller responsible for shutdown of custom thread pools</li>

 * </ul>

	 * <ul>

	 * <li><strong>Memory overhead</strong>: ~200 bytes per virtual thread vs ~2MB per platform thread</li>

	 * <li><strong>Creation cost</strong>: Nearly zero compared to platform threads</li>

	 * <li><strong>Blocking behavior</strong>: Virtual threads don't block carrier threads during I/O</li>
