: A relatively new meta-heuristic, known as extremal optimisation (EO), is based on the evolutionary science notion that poorly performing genes of an individual are replaced by ra...
We derive cost formulae for three di erent parallelisation techniques for training supervised networks. These formulae are parameterised by properties of the target computer archit...
Abstract. This paper describes a parallel model for a distributed memory architecture of a non traditional evolutionary computation method, which integrates constraint propagation ...

Logic programming is based on the idea that computation is controlled inference. The Extended Andorra Model provides a very powerful framework that supports both co-routining and p...
Abstract. In this work an architecture of an automatically tuned linear algebra library proposed in previous works is extended in order to adapt it to platforms where both the CPU ...

Abstract. OpenMP has evolved recently towards expressing unstructured parallelism, targeting the parallelization of a broader range of applications in the current multicore era. Ho...
To support a vast set of user requirements, flexibility and extensibility are essential features of a metasystem architecture. We present an execution model, the Reflective Graph ...

Process technology has reduced in size such that it is possible to implement complete applicationspecific architectures as Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) using both Application-Specific I...
Coupling recent imaging capabilities with microstructural finite element (microFE) analysis offers a powerful tool to determine bone stiffness and strength. It shows high potentia...
