Testing and debugging database system applications is often challenging and time consuming. A database tester (or DB tester for short) has to detect a problem, determine why it ha...
We revisit the roots of Genetic Programming (i.e. Natural Evolution), and conclude that the mechanisms of the process of evolution (i.e. selection, inheritance and variation) are ...
A method is presented for modeling application performance on parallel computers in terms of the performance of microkernels from the HPC Challenge benchmarks. Specifically, the a...
In this paper, we propose a genetic network programming (GNP) architecture using a coevolution model called automatically defined groups (ADG). The GNP evolves networks for describ...
We propose an efficient method that applies directed soft arc consistency to a Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem (DCOP) which is a fundamental framework of multi-agent ...
