— Simulated Evolution (SimE) is a sound stochastic approximation algorithm based on the principles of adaptation. If properly engineered it is possible for SimE to reach nearopti...
Genetic algorithms require relatively large computation time to solve optimization problems, especially in VLSI CAD such as module placement. Therefore, island-based parallel GAs a...
Rendering high-quality computer animations requires intensive computation, and therefore a large amount of time. One way to speed up this process is to devise rendering algorithms...
We present an active switch architecture to improve the performance of systems connected via system area networks. Our programmable active switches not only flexibly route packets...
This paper proposes a methodology for designing a class of algorithms for computing functions in dynamic distributed systems in which communication channels and processes may ceas...
