Evolving solutions rather than computing them certainly represents an unconventional programming approach. The general methodology of evolutionary computation has already been know...
We introduce potential fitness, a variant of fitness function that operates in the space of schemata and is applicable to tree-based genetic programing. The proposed evaluation ...
Aircraft sizing studies consist in determining the main characteristics of an aircraft starting from a set of requirements. These studies can be summarized as global constrained o...
We present a new method of Logic-Based Genetic Programming (LBGP). Using the intrinsic mechanism of backtracking in Prolog, we utilize large individual programs with redundant clau...
Scheduling query execution plans is an important component of query optimization in parallel database systems. The problem is particularly complex in a shared-nothing execution en...
