Economic incentives are a powerful way of shaping consumer behavior towards more commercially efficient and environmentally sustainable patterns. In this paper, we explore the id...
Abstract—Sharing patterns in shared-memory multiprocessors are the key to performance: uniprocessor latencytolerating techniques such as out-of-order execution and non-blocking c...
Abstract. Genetic algorithms (GAs) are a class of search algorithms based on principles of natural evolution. Hence, incorporating mechanisms used in nature may improve the perform...
Model is a kind of codified knowledge that has been verified in solving problems. Solving a complex problem usually needs a set of models. Using components, the composition of a s...
We address two issues in Evolutionary Robotics, namely the genetic encoding and the performance criterion, also known as fitness function. For the first aspect, we suggest to enco...
