Abstract. A promising approach towards evaluating adaptive systems is to decompose the adaptation process and evaluate the system in a “piece-wise” manner. This paper presents ...
Abstract. The Amorphous Computing project is aimed at developing programming methodologies for systems composed of vast numbers of locallyinteracting, identically-programmed agents...
Abstract. Proving the termination of a flowchart program can be done by exhibiting a ranking function, i.e., a function from the program states to a wellfounded set, which strictl...
