When a switching network topology is used for constructing optical cross-connects, as in the circuit switching case, no two routes are allowed to share a link. However, if two rou...
—Constrained Genetic Programming (CGP) is a method of searching the Genetic Programming search space non-uniformly, giving preferences to certain subspaces according to some heur...
Abstract--An image can be seen as an element of a vector space so that it can be expressed in terms of a series expansion of any non necessarily orthogonal base of this space. This...
Since grid computing provides users with more distributed computing and storage resources, it gives us an opportunity to design new efficient and robust solvers for the numerical...
