The dynamically configurable distributed object (DCDO) model helps enable object evolution and facilitate the development of distributed objects from multiple independent implemen...
In this paper, we present a solution that allows systems to remain active while they are evolving. Our approach goes out from the principle of separated concerns and has two steps....
We consider the question of the stability of evolutionary algorithms to gradual changes, or drift, in the target concept. We define an algorithm to be resistant to drift if, for s...

Evolutionary theorists have long been interested in the conditions that permit the evolution of altruistic cooperation. Recent work has demonstrated that altruistic donation can ev...
