Genetic Programming

by John R. Koza , 1997
"... Introduction Genetic programming is a domain-independent problem-solving approach in which computer programs are evolved to solve, or approximately solve, problems. Genetic programming is based on the Darwinian principle of reproduction and survival of the fittest and analogs of naturally occurring ..."

GOLOG: A Logic Programming Language for Dynamic Domains

by Hector J. Levesque, Raymond Reiter, Yves Lespérance, Fangzhen Lin, Richard B. Scherl , 1994
"... This paper proposes a new logic programming language called GOLOG whose interpreter automatically maintains an explicit representation of the dynamic world being modeled, on the basis of user supplied axioms about the preconditions and effects of actions and the initial state of the world. This allo ..."

Making the most of statistical analyses: Improving interpretation and presentation

by Gary King, Michael Tomz, Jason Wittenberg - American Journal of Political Science , 2000
"... Social scientists rarely take full advantage of the information available in their statistical results. As a consequence, they miss opportunities to present quantities that are of greatest substantive interest for their research and express the appropriate degree of certainty about these quantities. ..."
Abstract - Cited by 550 (24 self) - Add to MetaCart
. In this article, we offer an approach, built on the technique of statistical simulation, to extract the currently overlooked information from any statistical method and to interpret and present it in a reader-friendly manner. Using this technique requires some expertise,

Concurrent Constraint Programming

by Vijay A. Saraswat, Martin Rinard , 1993
"... This paper presents a new and very rich class of (con-current) programming languages, based on the notion of comput.ing with parhal information, and the con-commitant notions of consistency and entailment. ’ In this framework, computation emerges from the inter-action of concurrently executing agent ..."

agents that communi-cate by placing, checking and instantiating constraints on shared variables. Such a view of computation is in-teresting in the context of programming languages be-cause of the ability to represent and manipulate partial information about the domain of discourse, in the con

Constraint Logic Programming: A Survey

by Joxan Jaffar, Michael J. Maher
"... Constraint Logic Programming (CLP) is a merger of two declarative paradigms: constraint solving and logic programming. Although a relatively new field, CLP has progressed in several quite different directions. In particular, the early fundamental concepts have been adapted to better serve in differe ..."

A Survey of Program Slicing Techniques

by F. Tip - JOURNAL OF PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES , 1995
"... A program slice consists of the parts of a program that (potentially) affect the values computed at some point of interest, referred to as a slicing criterion. The task of computing program slices is called program slicing. The original definition of a program slice was presented by Weiser in 197 ..."

Literate programming

by Donald E. Knuth - THE COMPUTER JOURNAL , 1984

Model Checking Programs

by Willem Visser, Klaus Havelund, GUILLAUME BRAT, SEUNGJOON PARK, FLAVIO LERDA , 2003
"... The majority of work carried out in the formal methods community throughout the last three decades has (for good reasons) been devoted to special languages designed to make it easier to experiment with mechanized formal methods such as theorem provers, proof checkers and model checkers. In this pape ..."

environment for Java, called Java PathFinder (JPF), which integrates model checking, program analysis and testing. Part of this work has consisted of building a new Java Virtual Machine that interprets Java bytecode. JPF uses state compression to handle big states, and partial order and symmetry reduction

Monads for functional programming

by Philip Wadler , 1995
"... The use of monads to structure functional programs is described. Monads provide a convenient framework for simulating effects found in other languages, such as global state, exception handling, output, or non-determinism. Three case studies are looked at in detail: how monads ease the modification o ..."
