In this paper we compare four selection strategies in evolutionary optimization of information retrieval (IR) in a question answering setting. The IR index has been augmented by li...
Hybrid algorithms combining local and systematic search often use nondeterminism in fundamentally different ways. They may differ in the strategy to explore the search tree and/o...
Two different approaches are proposed to enhance the efficiency of the numerical resolution of optimal control problems governed by a linear advection– diffusion equation. In ...
This paper is concerned with user modelling issues such as adaptive educational environments, adaptive information retrieval, and support for collaboration. The HomeWork project is...

Dynamic module replacement — the ability to hot swap a component’s implementation at runtime — is fundamental to supporting evolutionary change in long-lived and highlyavail...
