We are building an operating system in which an integral run-time code generator constantly strives to improve the quality of already executing code. Our system is based on a plat...
Diversity is an important source of robustness in biological systems. Computers, by contrast, are notable for their lack of diversity. Although homogeneous systems have many advan...
