In this paper, we propose DBSampler, a query execution mechanism to answer "partial selection" queries in peerto-peer databases. A partial selection query is an arbitrar...
In genetic programming, the reproductive operators of crossover and mutation both require the selection of nodes from the reproducing individuals. Both unbiased random selection a...
Distributed stream query services must simultaneously process a large number of complex, continuous queries with stringent performance requirements while utilizing distributed pro...

The interplay between the mutation operator and the selection mechanism plays a fundamental role in the behaviour of evolutionary algorithms (EAs). However, this interplay is stil...
Abstract. In Neo-Darwinism, mutation can be considered to be unaffected by selection pressure. This is the metaphor generally used by the genetic algorithm for its treatment of the...
