Instruction combining is an optimization to replace a sequence of instructions with a more efficient instruction yielding the same result in a fewer machine cycles. When we use it...
Using a directed mutation can improve the efficiency of processing many optimization problems. The first mutation operators of this kind proposed by Hildebrand [1], however, suffer...
In this paper we present a distributed, application-morphable, algorithm for waking up appropriate sensor nodes in a heterogeneous sensor network. We assume a sensor field consisti...
