The evolution of simulated robots with three different architectures is studied in this article. We compare a nonmodular feed-forward network, a hardwired modular, and a duplicatio...
We propose an interface specification language based on grammars for modular software model checking. In our interface specification language, component interfaces are specified a...
We present the architecture and a performance assessment of an extensible query optimizer written in Venus. Venus is a general-purpose active-database rule language embedded in C+...
— Despite their success as optimization methods, evolutionary algorithms face many difficulties to design artifacts with complex structures. According to paleontologists, living...
