Discrete optimization is a difficult task common to many different areas in modern research. This type of optimization refers to problems where solution elements can assume one of several discrete values. The most basic form of discrete optimization is bin ...
System-level design decisions such as HW/SW partitioning, target architecture selection and scheduler selection are some of the main concerns of current complex system-on-chip (SOC) designs. In this paper, a novel window-based heuristic is proposed that ad ...
The response of a steel structure is closely related to the behavior of its joints. This means that it is necessary to take explicit account of joint properties in order to ensure a consistent approach to design optimization of steel frames. Semi-rigid des ...
Energy-efficient design of multimedia embedded systems demands optimizations in both hardware and software. Software optimization has no received much attention, although modern multimedia applications exhibit high resource utilization. In order to efficie ...
This paper describes new optimization strategies that offer significant improvements in performance over existing methods for bridge-truss design. In this study, a real-world cost function that consists of costs on the weight of the truss and the number of ...
In high head dams, the kinetic energy at the spillway toe is very high and the tail-water depth available for energy dissipation is relatively small. Cascade stilling basins are energy dissipation systems for high head dams, the design of which is based on ...
We propose a crossover operator that works with genetic programming trees and is approximately geometric crossover in the semantic space. By defining semantic as program's evaluation profile with respect to a set of fitness cases and constraining to a spec ...
The spectrum of exponentially weighted covariance matrices is studied here. We first give a formal way of obtaining the spectrum using annealed approximation frequently used in Statistical Mechanics. Using the method developed by Bai and Silverstein we obt ...
Modern multimedia application exhibit high resource utilization. In order to efficiently run this kind of applications in embedded systems, the dynamic memory subsystem needs to be optimized. A key role in this optimization is played by the dynamic data st ...
In nature, textures can be found everywhere. Texture, together with color and shape, represents the fundamental characteristics of objects. Texture conveys an idea of repetition of a certain structure, which is not limited only to the visual domain. We can ...
