This paper describes and exercises a new design paradigm for cast components. The methodology integrates foundry process simulation, non-destructive evaluation (nde), stress analys...
Arti cial Life and the more general area of Complex Systems does not have a uni ed theoretical framework although most theoretical work in these areas is based on simulation. This ...
The notion of submodular partition functions generalizes many of well-known tree decompositions of graphs. For fixed k, there are polynomial-time algorithms to determine whether ...
This paper is devoted to sequential decision problems with imprecise probabilities. We study the problem of determining an optimal strategy according to the Hurwicz criterion in de...
Shotgun sequencing is the most widely used technique for determining the DNA sequence of organisms. It involves breaking up the DNA into many small pieces that can be read by auto...
