Abstract. The need of true random number generators for many purposes (ranging from applications in cryptography and stochastic simulation, to search heuristics and game playing) i...
We study if and when the inequality dp(H) ≤ rel∆(H) holds for schemas H in chromosomes that are structured as trees. The disruption probability dp(H) is the probability that a...
We focus on the handling of overlapping solutions in evolutionary multiobjective optimization (EMO) algorithms. First we show that there exist a large number of overlapping soluti...
We describe Web-a-Where, a system for associating geography with Web pages. Web-a-Where locates mentions of places and determines the place each name refers to. In addition, it as...
concerns, abstraction (particularly hierarchical abstraction), simplicity, and restricted visibility (locality of information). The overall goal behind these principles was stated ...
