public class Adapter extends Object
The Adapter contains methods to translate between DesignDecisionGenotype and FinalBinaryGenotype. In the conversion process, the following steps are involved:

1) The DesignDecisionGenotype (a list of Choice objects), is first converted to a list of BinaryGenotype objects.

2) The list of BinaryGenotype objects are converted to FinalBinaryGenotype object using the FinalBinaryGenotype constructor. This is the final stage of the conversion where we have obtained our end result (that of converting the DesignDecisionGenotype to a FinalBinaryGenotype).

For the retranslation process, we have to convert the FinalBinaryGenotype to a DesignDecisionGenotype. The process goes as follows:

1) FinalBinaryGenotype is converted to a list of BinaryGenotype objects

2)This list is converted to a list of Choice objects and is used to construct a DesignDecisionGenotype

NOTE: During the retranslation for the ContinuousProcessingRateDegree, we cannot assign the correct server speed value to the corresponding Choice object, because the binary representation gives us server speed intervals (instead of particular values). This problem is partially overcome by randomly assigning one of the previously used values of server speed (in a particular interval) during the initialization of the problem.
