This paper introduces MOCAS (Model Of Components for Adaptive Systems), a generic state-based component model which enables the self-adaptation of software components together wit...
We have developed an infrastructure for end-to-end run-time monitoring, behavior/performance analysis, and dynamic adaptation of distributed software. This infrastructure is prima...
This paper studies the issue of space coordinate change in genetic algorithms, based on two methods: convex quadratic approximations, and principal component analysis. In both met...
