In addressing the growing model sizes used in simulation environments, I examine adding machine learning techniques to the entities in a model in an effort to produce such side effects as emergent behavior. Distributing the environment in order to increase the efficiency of the simulation also plays an important role in this thesis. The added intelligence of entities may have some affect upon t...

Oracles used for testing graphical user interface (GUI) programs are required to take into consideration complicating factors such as variations in screen resolution or color scheme when comparing observed GUI elements to expected GUI elements. Researchers proposed fuzzy comparison rules and computationally expensive image processing techniques to tame the comparison process since otherwise the...

The Generalized Dowling Lattices

In this paper we study a new class of lattices called the generalized Dowling lattices. These lattices are parametrized by a positive integer n , a finite group G , and a meet sublattice K of the lattice of subgroups of G . For an appropriate choice of K the generalized Dowling lattice Dn{G,K) agrees with the ordinary Dowling lattice Dn(G). For a different choice of K, the generalized Dowling l...
