— Algorithmic problem reduction is a fundamental approach to problem solving in many fields, including robotics. To solve a problem using this scheme, we must reduce the problem...
Abstract—The imperfect nature of context in Ambient Intelligence environments and the special characteristics of the entities that possess and share the available context informa...
Classical floorplanning minimizes a linear combination of area and wirelength. When Simulated Annealing is used, e.g., with the Sequence Pair representation, the typical choice o...
