Abstract. In this paper a new, general and exact schema theory for genetic programming is presented. The theory includes a microscopic schema theorem applicable to crossover operat...
In many modern designs, timing is either a key optimization goal and/or a mandatory constraint. We propose the first intellectual property protection technique using watermarking ...
A technique is proposed to reduce the peak power consumption of sequential circuits during test pattern application. High-speed computation intensive VLSI systems, as telecommunica...
From the user’s point of view, setting the parameters of a genetic algorithm (GA) is far from a trivial task. Moreover, the user is typically not interested in population sizes,...
The performance of many modern computer and communication systems is dictated by latency of communication pipelines. At the same time, power consumption is often another limiting ...
