Forwarding in Attribute Grammars for Modular Language Design
Abstract. Forwarding is a technique for providing default attribute definitions in attribute grammars that is helpful in the modular implementation of programming languages. It com...

Duplication of Modules Facilitates the Evolution of Functional Specialization
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...

Evolving modular neural-networks through exaptation
— Despite their success as optimization methods, evolutionary algorithms face many difficulties to design artifacts with complex structures. According to paleontologists, living...
