Real Royal Road Functions for Constant Population Size
Evolutionary and genetic algorithms (EAs and GAs) are quite successful randomized function optimizers. This success is mainly based on the interaction of different operators like ...

Wooden Geometric Puzzles: Design and Hardness Proofs
We discuss some new geometric puzzles and the complexity of their extension to arbitrary sizes. For gate puzzles and two-layer puzzles we prove NP-completeness of solving them. No...

Polynomial Vicinity Circuits and Nonlinear Lower Bounds
We study families of Boolean circuits with the property that the number of gates at distance t fanning into or out of any given gate in a circuit is bounded above by a polynomial ...

A novel general framework for evolutionary optimization: Adaptive fuzzy fitness granulation
— Computational complexity is a major challenge in evolutionary algorithms due to their need for repeated fitness function evaluations. Here, we aim to reduce number of fitness f...

FPGAs: a new point in the database design space
In line with the insight that “one size” of databases will not fit all application needs [19], the database community is currently exploring various alternatives to commodity...
