In this paper we formulate a combinatorial auction brokering problem as a set packing problem and apply a simulated annealing heuristic with hybrid local moves to solve the proble...
The fair bandwidth allocations can isolate flows and protect well-behaved flows from ill-behaved ones. CSFQ (Core Stateless Fair Queueing) achieves the approximate fairness by d...
A deterministic dynamic element matching (DEM) approach to ADC testing is introduced and compared with a common random DEM method. With both approaches, a highly non-ideal DAC is ...
Engineering individual components of a multi-agent system and their interactions is a complex and error-prone task in urgent need of methods and tools. Prototyping is a valuable t...

This paper presents an approach to the joint optimization of neural network structure and weights which can take advantage of backpropagation as a specialized decoder. The approac...
