In this paper, we incorporate a diversity mechanism to the differential evolution algorithm to solve constrained optimization problems without using a penalty function. The aim is...
The goal of our investigation is to find automatically the best rule for a cell in the cellular automata model. The cells are either of type Obstacle, Empty or Creature. Only Crea...
—Code smells are poor implementation choices, thought to make object-oriented systems hard to maintain. In this study, we investigate if classes with code smells are more change-...
—During the past decade, the packet classification problem has been widely studied to accelerate network applications such as access control, traffic engineering and intrusion de...
