The GOLEM project is an attempt to extend evolutionary techniques into the physical world by evolving diverse electro-mechanical machines (robots) that can be fabricated automatic...
This paper presents a detailed technical description of a large-scale evolvable hardware system for evolving complex digital circuits directly in silicon at high speed. The core o...
Evolvable Hardware (EHW) has been proposed as a new technique to design complex systems. Often, complex systems turn out to be very difficult to evolve. The problem is that a gen...
Fault tolerance has always been a standard feature of electronic systems intended for long-term missions. However, the high complexity of modern systems makes the incorporation of...

How do we know the correctness of an evolved circuit? While Evolutionary Hardware is exhibiting its effectiveness, we argue that it is very difficult to design a large-scale digit...
The growth and operation of all living beings are directed by the interpretation, in each of their cells, of a chemical program, the DNA string or genome. This process is the sour...
Because there are di erent types of software (e.g., language, application, target environment, etc.), di erent software certi cation methodologies are needed. Software process imp...
In this paper we focus on the architecture-based development of what we call directly reactive information systems on the Internet. These systems exhibit full content management o...
Detecting software architecture inconsistencies is a critical issue in software design. Software systems are described in terms of components, component behavior and interaction a...
