Some telecommunication systems can not afford the cost of repeating a corrupted message. Instead, the message should be somewhat “corrected” by the receiver. In these cases a...
Many of today’s embedded systems, such as wireless and portable devices rely heavily on the limited power supply. Therefore, energy efficiency becomes one of the major design con...
The three mechanisms of crossover are transmission, assortment, and respect. Of these three mechanisms, assortment (i.e. recombination) is traditionally viewed as the primary feat...
This paper analyses alternatives for the parallelization of the Simulated Annealing algorithm when applied to the placement of modules in a VLSI circuit considering the use of PVM...
The preservation of common components has been recently isolated as a beneficial feature of genetic algorithms. One interpretation of this benefit is that the preservation of commo...
