Properties such as logging, persistence, debugging, tracing, distribution, performance monitoring and exception handling occur in most programming paradigms and are normally very ...
Self-adaptation of the mutation strengths is a powerful mechanism in evolution strategies (ES), but it can fail. As a consequence premature convergence or ending up in a local opt...
This paper presents micro self-reconfigurable modular robotic systems using shape memory alloy (SMA). The system is designed so that various shapes can be autonomously formed by a ...
Traditional database security mechanisms are very limited in defending against data attacks. Authorized but malicious transactions can make a database useless by impairing its int...
One important characteristic of wireless sensor networks is energy stringency. Constructing a connected dominating set (CDS) has been widely used as a topology control strategy to...
