Abstract— We recast the problem of unconstrained continuous evolutionary optimization as inference in a fixed graphical model. This approach allows us to address several pervasi...

A compiler optimization is sound if the optimized program that it produces is semantically equivalent to the input program. The proofs of semantic equivalence are usually tedious....
—Embedded systems typically consist of a composition of a set of hardware and software IP modules. Each module is heavily optimized by itself. However, when these modules are com...

Modern query optimizers select an efficient join ordering for a physical execution plan based essentially on the average join selectivity factors among the referenced tables. In ...
—This paper deals with the Space Mapping (SM) approach to engineering design optimization. We attempt here a theoretical justification of methods that have already proven efficie...
