Genetic algorithms (GAs) are stochastic search methods that have been successfully applied in many search, optimization, and machine learning problems. Their parallel counterpart (...
Grids are facing the challenge of seamless integration of the grid power into everyday use. One critical component for this integration is responsiveness, the capacity to support o...
Higher level semantics are considered useful in the geospatial domain, yet there is no general consensus on the form these semantics should take. Indeed, knowledge representation p...
