Swarm robotics has been proposed as a way to organise decentralised systems in which a large number of similar robots, that are autonomous and relatively simple in their behaviour, are coordinated in a way that leads to ...

The significant improvements in throughput and quality of DNA sequencing technology have revolutionized our ability to identify the genetic sequence of human cells. High-throughput genome sequencing of tumor cells has ...

The use of multimedia streaming on the internet is increasing. With this the need for new protocols is created. The Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) can support this better than other existing protocols like ...

Historically, the use of graphics cards for scientific computing has yielded great performance. Order-of-magnitude performance gains has been obtained over the CPU (Owens et al. 2008). This is mainly due to their massively ...

Examining the benefits of adding syntactic information to a system for solving a given question answering task.

In recent years, there has been a growing focus on how GPUs can be utilized for general purpose computations. However, this leads to less focus on the CPU as a computational resource. As a consequence, heterogeneous computers ...

Video games have proven to be an interesting platform for computer scientists, as many games demand the latest technology, fast response times and effective utilization of hardware. Video games have been used both as a ...

Inspired by animals ability to learn and adapt to changes in their environment during life, hybrid evolutionary algorithms which include local optimization between generations have been developed and successfully applied ...
