Behavioral theories and the neurophysiology of reward,

by Wolfram Schultz - Annu. Rev. Psychol. , 2006
"... ■ Abstract The functions of rewards are based primarily on their effects on behavior and are less directly governed by the physics and chemistry of input events as in sensory systems. Therefore, the investigation of neural mechanisms underlying reward functions requires behavioral theories that can ..."

degrees, you need to make a decision about what to get for lunch. You can do a numerical calculation and weigh the price of each bottle by the probability that its contents will please your taste, but chances are that a more automatic decision mechanism kicks in that is based on anticipation and will tell

Analysis of a Simple Model for Non-Preemptive Blocking-Free Scheduling

by L. Almeida, J. A. Fonseca - Proc. of ECRTS’01 (EUROMICRO Conf. on Real-Time Systems , 2001
"... Non-preemptive scheduling is known for its lower efficiency in meeting temporal constraints when compared to preemptive scheduling. However, it is still used in certain cases such as in message scheduling over serial broadcast buses and in light multi-tasking kernels for embedded systems based on si ..."

on simple microprocessors. These cases are typically found in control applications requiring the periodic execution (or transmission) of a set of tasks (or messages) with low jitter. This paper refers to a simple execution strategy based on synchronised time-triggering and non-preemptive scheduling

Automatic program repair with evolutionary computation,”

by Stephanie Forrest , Westley Weimer , Stephanie Forrest , Claire Le Goues , Thanhvu Nguyen - Commun. ACM, , 2010
"... Abstract There are many methods for detecting and mitigating software errors but few generic methods for automatically repairing errors once they are discovered. This paper highlights recent work combining program analysis methods with evolutionary computation to automatically repair bugs in off-th ..."
Abstract - Cited by 34 (5 self) - Add to MetaCart
al. 24 are: • Algorithms to find and minimize program repairs based on test cases that describe desired functionality. The algorithms are generic in the sense that they can repair many classes of bugs. • A novel and efficient representation and set of operations for applying GP to program repair

Simple and Efficient Marker-Based Approach in Human Gait Analysis Using Gaussian Mixture Model

by Mohammad Othman Nassar , Eman Fares , Al Mashagba , Feras Fares , Al Mashagba , Mohammad Othman Nassar
"... Background: Gait analysis is a valuable tool that can be used in human motion tracking in many applications. Most motion tracking are performed using Marker-based System technologies. Objective: we present a simple but efficient two dimensional (2D) marker-based method that extracts the gait parame ..."

QOS WITH RELIABILITY AND SCALABILITY IN ADAPTIVE SERVICE-BASED SYSTEMS

by V. Rhymend, Uthariaraj P. Mercy, Florence A. Geetha
"... Service-based systems that are dynamically composed at runtime to provide complex, adaptive functionality are currently one of the main development paradigms in software engineering. However, the Quality of Service (QoS) delivered by these systems remains an important concern, and needs to be manage ..."
Abstract - Add to MetaCart
to be managed in an equally adaptive and predictable way. To address this need, we introduce a novel, tool-supported framework for the development of adaptive servicebased systems called QoSMOS (QoS Management and Optimization of Service-based systems). QoSMOS can be used to develop service-based systems

Pinpointing representative portions of large Intel Itanium programs with dynamic instrumentation

by Harish Patil, Robert Cohn, Mark Charney, Rajiv Kapoor, Andrew Sun - In International Symposium on Microarchitecture , 2004
"... Detailed modeling of the performance of commercial applications is difficult. The applications can take a very long time to run on real hardware and it is impractical to simulate them to completion on performance models. Furthermore, these applications have complex execution environments that cannot ..."

A Framework for an Automatic Hybrid MPI+OpenMP code generation

by Khaled Hamidouche, Joel Falcou, Daniel Etiemble
"... Clusters of symmetric multiprocessors (SMPs) are the most currently used architecture for large scale applications and combining MPI and OpenMP models is regarded as a suit-able programming model for such architectures. But writing efficient MPI+OpenMP programs requires expertise and per-formance an ..."

On Modeling Low-Power Wireless Protocols Based on Synchronous Packet Transmissions

by unknown authors
"... Abstract—Mathematical models play a pivotal role in understanding and designing advanced low-power wireless systems. However, the distributed and uncoordinated operation of traditional multi-hop low-power wireless protocols greatly complicates their accurate modeling. This is mainly because these pr ..."
