On Solving Soft Temporal Constraints Using SAT Techniques
In this paper, we present an algorithm for finding utilitarian optimal solutions to Simple and Disjunctive Temporal Problems with Preferences (STPPs and DTPPs) based on Benders’...

Evolving tiles for automated self-assembly design
Abstract— Self-assembly is a distributed, asynchronous mechanism that is pervasive across natural systems where hierarchical complex structures are built from the bottom-up. The ...

Optimal location of transportation devices
We consider algorithms for finding the optimal location of a simple transportation device, that we call a moving walkway, consisting of a pair of points in the plane between which ...

The impact of cellular representation on finite state agents for prisoner's dilemma
The iterated prisoner’s dilemma is a widely used computational model of cooperation and conflict. Many studies report emergent cooperation in populations of agents trained to p...
