For computer-automated design systems to scale to complex designs they must be able to produce designs that exhibit the characteristics of modularity, regularity and hierarchy –...
In reinforcement learning problems it has been considered that neither exploitation nor exploration can be pursued exclusively without failing at the task. The optimal balance bet...
Designing technical plants is a complex and demanding process. It has been shown that the optimization of the simple facility placement problem is already NP-hard. Optimization of...
Mobile ad hoc networks are typically designed and evaluated in generic simulation environments. However the real conditions in which these networks are deployed can be quite diff...
— In a grid-computing environment, resource selection and scheduling depend on the network topology connecting the computation nodes. This paper presents a method to hierarchical...
