IP problems characterise combinatorial optimisation problems where conventional numerical methods based on the hill-climbing technique can not be directly applied. Conventional me...
Magic sets rewriting is a well-known optimization heuristic for complex decision-support queries. There can be many variants of this rewriting even for a single query, which diffe...

Even though the large body of knowledge of relational query optimization techniques can be utilized as a starting point for object-oriented query optimization the full exploitatio...
The application of network analysis to emergent mating topologies in spatially structured genetic algorithms is presented in this preliminary study as a framework for inferring ev...
In this paper the application of reinforcement learning to Tetris is investigated, particulary the idea of temporal difference learning is applied to estimate the state value funct...
