This paper describes the innovative use of a genetic algorithm to solve the grasp synthesis problem for multifingered robot hands. The goal of our algorithm is to select a `best...
This paper describes a novel semantic framework for an agent architecture. Drawing on Shoham's work on AGENT0 (Shoham 1993), we replace Shoham's modal logic semantics wi...

Design patterns are a standard means to create large software systems. However, with standard object-oriented techniques, typical implementations of such patterns are not themselv...
Parallel implementations of programming languages need to control synchronization overheads. Synchronization is essential for ensuring the correctness of parallel code, yet it add...
