Rules of engagement: competitive coevolutionary dynamics in computational systems
Given that evolutionary biologists have considered coevolutionary interactions since the dawn of Darwinism, it is perhaps surprising that coevolution was largely overlooked during the formative years of evolutionary computing. It was not until the early 1990s that Hillis' seminal work thrust …

A programming language for precision--cost tradeoffs
Many computational systems need to deal with various forms of imprecision and uncertainty in their data; it is also the case that many systems, especially mobile and distributed systems, must be able to trade off the precision of their data and operations against the cost of performing those …
