All but the most briefly used systems must evolve as their mission and roles change over time. Evolution in the context of large distributed systems is extraordinarily complex bec...
: Simulations of the evolution of populations of diploid organisms showed that mate selection strategies which selected for "good genes" and strategies based on assortati...
An interesting problem which has been widely investigated is under what circumstances will a society of rational agents realize some particular stable situations, and whether they ...
Abstract. The exploitation of the physical characteristics has already been demonstrated in the intrinsic evolution of electronic circuits. This paper is an initial attempt at crea...
This paper presents simulations of long-term competition for light between two plant species, oaks and beeches. These artificial plants, evolving in a 3D environment, are based on ...
