Agent motion planning with GAs enhanced by memory models. (2001)
Journal Article
Bot, M., Urquhart, N. B., & Chisholm, K. (2001). Agent motion planning with GAs enhanced by memory models. Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Conference, 227-234

The Tartarus problem may be considered a benchmark problem in the field of robotics. A robotic agent is required to move a number of blocks to the edge of an environment. The location of the blocks and position of the robot is unknown initially. The... Read More about Agent motion planning with GAs enhanced by memory models..

Towards optimal broadcasting in wormhole-routed meshes (2001)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Al-Dubai, A., Ould-Khaoua, M., & Mackenzie, L. (2001). Towards optimal broadcasting in wormhole-routed meshes. In H. R. Arabnia (Ed.), Proceedings of the international conference on parallel and distributed processing techniques and applications : PDPTA'

Most existing broadcast algorithms proposed for the mesh do not scale well with the network size. Furthermore, they have been mainly based on deterministic routing, which cannot exploit the alternative paths provided by mesh topology to reduce commun...

Visualising multiple overlapping classification hierarchies. (2001)
Thesis
Graham, M. Visualising multiple overlapping classification hierarchies. (Thesis). Napier University. Retrieved from http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/2430

The revision or reorganisation of hierarchical data sets can result in many possible hierarchical classifications composed of the same or overlapping data sets existing in parallel with each other. These data sets are difficult for people to handle a... Read More about Visualising multiple overlapping classification hierarchies..

Populations of intertidal bivalves are patchily distributed at a variety of scales, and the distributions of adults and juveniles are often different. Adult-juvenile interactions may help explain this patchiness. In this study, the effects of differe...
