Using a dynamic systems model for the Simple Genetic Algorithm due to Vose[1], we analyze the fixed point behavior of the model without crossover applied to functions of unitation...
Software evolution is an inevitable process when developing a system of any notable size and is the most costly stage in the life cycle of a system. Automating parts of this proces...
The Bluenome Model of Development is introduced. The Bluenome model is a developmental model of Artificial Morphogenesis, inspired by biological development, instantiating a subset...
It is estimated in a recent OECD International Adult Literacy Survey that up to 500,000 Irish adults are functionally illiterate, that is many people have difficulty in reading an...
