The circuit tuning problem is best approached by means of gradient-based nonlinear optimization algorithms. For large circuits, gradient computation can be the bottleneck in the o...

We present a novel method for state minimization of incompletely-specified finite state machines. Where classic methods simply minimize the number of states, ours directly addre...
Several methods have been proposed for handling nonlinear constraints by evolutionary algorithms for numerical optimization problems; a survey paper [7] provides an overview of var...
Although platform-independent runtime systems for parallel programming languages are desirable, the need for low-level optimizations usually precludes their existence. This is bec...
The problem of finding an optimal bipartition of a rectangle set has a direct impact on query performance of dynamic R-trees. During update operations, overflowed nodes need to be...
