Gradient-based numerical optimization of complex engineering designs offers the promise of rapidly producing better designs. However, such methods generally assume that the object...
Component-based models represent a dominant trend in the construction of wide-area network applications, making possible the integration of diverse functionality contained in modu...
This paper examines the use of a hierarchical coevolutionary genetic algorithm under different partnering strategies. Cascading clusters of sub-populations are built from the bott...
