Simulation offers significant advantages as a basis for academic projects in computer networking. many unimportant details can be abstracted away, and also because simulations can...
Obtaining performance models, like Markov chains and queueing networks, for systems of significant complexity and magnitude is a difficult task that is usually tackled using human...
Abstract: Since von Neumann's seminal work around 1950, computer scientists and others have studied the algorithms needed to support self-replicating systems. Much of this wor...
In this paper I will show how reactive agents can solve relatively complex tasks without requiring any internal state and I will demonstrate that this is due to their ability to c...
