Genetic programming makes it possible to automatically search the space of possible programs. First we evolved a behavior-based control architecture using computer simulations. Th...
Histograms are used to summarize the contents of relations into a number of buckets for the estimation of query result sizes. Several techniques (e.g., MaxDiff and V-Optimal) have ...

Group elevator scheduling has long been recognized as an important problem for building transportation efficiency, since unsatisfactory elevator service is one of the major complai...
In this paper we present a swarm grammar system that makes use of bio-inspired mechanisms of reproduction, communication and construction in order to build three-dimensional struc...
