In this paper, we design, implement and evaluate AdaptGuard, a software service for guarding adaptive systems, such as QoS-adaptive servers, from instability caused by software an...
The increased complexity of performance-sensitive software systems leads to increased use of automated adaptation policies in lieu of manual performance tuning. Composition of ada...

The use of examples serves a critical role in creative design practice, but details of this process remain an enigma. This is problematic for both the understanding of design acti...

- This paper presents a technique of evolutionary design for plants in virtual worlds, inspired from Richard Dawkins' adaptive walks within the space of biomorph structures. T...
We introduce ephemeral adaptation, a new adaptive GUI technique that improves performance by reducing visual search time while maintaining spatial consistency. Ephemeral adaptive ...
