I/O is a major performance bottleneck in modern computer systems. Modern disks use the Zone-Bit-Recording (ZBR) technology to increase the capacity. A direct consequence of ZBR is...
We introduce a probabilistic formalism subsuming Markov random fields of bounded tree width and probabilistic context free grammars. Our models are based on a representation of Bo...

1 We have developed an approach to acquire complicated user optimization criteria and use them to guide iterative solution improvement. The eectiveness of the approach was tested ...
A developmental model of neural network is presented and evaluated in the game of Checkers. The network is developed using cartesian genetic programs (CGP) as genotypes. Two agent...
