To achieve maximum performance gains through compiler optimization, most automatic performance tuning systems use a feed-back directed approach to rate the code versions generated...
This paper presents an improved version of a simple evolution strategy (SES) to solve global nonlinear optimization problems. As its previous version, the approach does not require...
Abstract. Many real-world optimization problems have several, usually conflicting objectives. Evolutionary multi-objective optimization usually solves this predicament by searchin...
Progressive Optimization (POP) is a technique to make query plans robust, and minimize need for DBA intervention, by repeatedly re-optimizing a query during runtime if the cardina...
