Abstract-- Local convergence is a limitation of many optimization approaches for multimodal functions. For hybrid model learning, this can mean a compromise in accuracy. We develop...
This paper presents a benchmark for dependablesystems. The benchmark consists of two metrics, number of catastrophic incidents and performance degradation, which are obtained by a...
Abstract. Autonomic computing is being advocated as a tool for maintaining and managing large, complex computing systems. Self-organising multi-agent systems provide a suitable par...

Abstract--A new image-based control strategy for visual servoing of a class of under-actuated rigid body systems is presented. The proposed control design applies to "eye-in-h...
Component-based software development has proven effective for systems implementation in well-understood application domains, but is still insufficient for the creation of reusable...
