Abstract We present an efficient method for importance sampling the product of multiple functions. Our algorithm computes a quick approximation of the product on-the-fly, based on ...
This paper outlines a methodology for designing information systems based on XML. The methodology uses XML DTDs to define the design standards, and the structure and constraints of...
Software components turn out to be a convenient model to build complex applications for scientific computing and to run them on a computational grid. However, deploying complex, co...
Some recent studies have pointed that , the self-organization of neurons into brain-like structures, and the self-organization of ants into a swarm are similar in many respects. I...
A theoretical and experimental analysis is made of the effects of self-adaptation in a simple evolving system. Specifically, we consider the effects of coding the mutation and ...
