Abstract. The parameter-less hierarchical Bayesian optimization algorithm (hBOA) enables the use of hBOA without the need for tuning parameters for solving each problem instance. T...
We present an improvement to distributed GAs based on migration of individuals between several concurrently evolving populations. The idea behind our improvement is to not only use...
Value prediction breaks data dependencies in a program thereby creating instruction level parallelism that can increase program performance. Hardware based value prediction techni...
The importance of mutation varies across evolutionary computation domains including: genetic programming, evolution strategies, and genetic algorithms. In the genetic programming ...
Many cooperative overlay multicast systems of diverse designs have been implemented and deployed. In this paper, we explore a new architecture for overlay multicast: we factor out...
