We hypothesize that the relationship between parameter settings, specically parameters controlling mutation, and performance is non-linear in genetic programs. Genetic programmin...
The formal analysis of parallelism and pipelining is performed on an 8-bit Add-Compare-Select element of a Viterbi decoder. The results are quantified through a study of the delay...
Self-organizing multi-agent systems (MAS) use different mechanisms to mimic the adaptation exhibited by complex systems situated in unpredictable and dynamic environments. These m...
