Abstrakt: Chromatic number, chromatic sum and chromatic sum number are important graph coloring characteristics. The paper proves that a parallel metaheuristic like the parallel genetic algorithm (PGA) can be efficiently used for computing approximate sum colorings and finding upper bounds for chromatic sums and chromatic sum numbers for hard-to-color graphs. Suboptimal sum coloring with PGA gives usually much closer upper bounds then theoretical formulas known from the literature. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
