The paper is devoted to upper bounds on run-time of Non-Elitist Genetic Algorithms until some target subset of solutions is visited for the first time. By means of drift analy-sis, the previously known upper bounds are improved and extended. Introduction. The genetic algorithm (GA) proposed by J. Holland [5] is a randomized heuristic search method, based on analogy with the genetic mechanisms observed in nature and employing a population of tentative solutions. Different modifications of GA are widely used in areas of operations research, pattern recognition, artificial intelligence etc. In this paper, the genetic algorithms are studied on a wide class of combinatoria
