Spanish term or phrase: Ocupa
La optimización en este tipo de programación puede realizarse con el algoritmo de evolución diferencial (DE), el que pertenece a la familia de algoritmos genéticos. El algoritmo DE ocupa operadores de cruce, mutación y selección, generando poblaciones sucesivas de individuos (soluciones o generaciones). Posteriormente, este algoritmo optimiza problemas mediante la evolución de una población de soluciones candidatas, empleando los operadores mencionados.

I think the term may be "fills" but would like confirmation please.

A genetic operator is an operator used in genetic algorithms to guide the algorithm towards a solution to a given problem. There are three main types of operators (mutation, crossover and selection), which must work in conjunction with one another in order for the algorithm to be successful. Genetic operators are used to create and maintain genetic diversity (mutation operator), combine existing solutions (also known as chromosomes) into new solutions (crossover) and select between solutions (selection).
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_operator

For the EAs covered in the previous chapters, variation from one generation to the next is achieved by applying crossover and/or mutation operators. If both these operators are used, crossover is usually applied first, after which the generated offspring are mutated. For these algorithms, mutation step sizes are sampled from some probability distribution function. DE differs from these evolutionary algorithms in that...
