Judgement Day in Heritage Hell

Replicator II – Judgement Day

The Developmental Systems approach to evolution is defended against the alternative ‘extended replicator’ approach of Sterelny, Smith and Dickison (1996). A precise definition is provided of the spatial and temporal boundaries of the ‘life-cycle’ that DST claims is the unit of evolution. Pacé Sterelny et al., the extended replicator theory is not a bulwark against excessive holism. Everything w...

Sledgehammer: Judgement Day

Sledgehammer, a component of the interactive theorem prover Isabelle, finds proofs in higher-order logic by calling the automated provers for first-order logic E, SPASS and Vampire. This paper is the largest and most detailed empirical evaluation of such a link to date. Our test data consists of 1240 proof goals arising in 7 diverse Isabelle theories, thus representing typical Isabelle proof ob...

Spreadsheet Hell

This management paper looks at the real world issues faced by practitioners managing spreadsheets through the production phase of their life cycle. It draws on the commercial experience of several developers working with large corporations, either as employees or consultants or contractors. It provides commercial examples of some of the practicalities involved with spreadsheet use around the en...

stability and attraction domains of traffic equilibria in day-to-day dynamical system formulation

در این پژوهش مسئله واگذاری ترافیک را از دید سیستم های دینامیکی فرمول بندی می کنیم.فرض کرده ایم که همه فاکتورهای وابسته در طول زمان ثابت باشند و تعادل کاربر را از طریق فرایند منظم روزبه روز پیگیری کنیم.دینامیک ترافیک توسط یک نگاشت بازگشتی نشان داده می شود که تکامل سیستم در طول زمان را نشان می دهد.پایداری تعادل و دامنه جذب را توسط مطالعه ویژگی های توپولوژیکی تکامل سیستم تجزیه و تحلیل می کنیم.پاید...
