Combining analysis and synthesis in a model of a biological cell
for ideas, and then abstract away from these ideas to produce algorithmic processes that can create problem solutions in a bottom-up manner. We have previously described a top-dow...

Progressive Decomposition: A Heuristic to Structure Arithmetic Circuits
Despite the impressive progress of logic synthesis in the past decade, finding the best architecture for a given circuit still remains an open problem and largely unsolved. In mos...

A gestalt genetic algorithm: less details for better search
The basic idea to defend in this paper is that an adequate perception of the search space, sacrificing most of the precision, can paradoxically accelerate the discovery of the mo...
