The Willow Survivability Architecture

Introduction The Willow architecture provides a comprehensive architectural approach to the provision of survivability [8] in critical information networks. It is based on the notion that survivability of a network requires reconfiguration at both the system and the application levels. The Willow notion of reconfiguration is very general, and the architecture provides reconfiguration mechanisms...

Machine Learning of Othello Heuristics

The machine learning algorithm of [3] is applied to the problem of learning which heuristics to apply when playing the board game Othello. The problem is large, for there are 46,875 heuristics considered. The results are respectable; the Learner is able to beat a practiced human player approximately fifty percent of the time. Suggestions for improvement are included.

Programming Assignment 2 – The Othello Champion Firebrand

The following report describes the process of building a good Othello player, using wellknown results from the field of artificial intelligence. We describe the features we use to evaluate the board, and also other ways we try to speed up our program such as best-first search to increase the gain from αβ-pruning and more. The final game, Firebrand, beats the authors even though it might need so...

Cs 221 Othello Report Demosthenes

This report is intended to inform the reader about our experiences and strategies in programming an artificially intelligent Othello client. More specifically, we will describe what went right, what went wrong, and what we would do if we were to do it again. There is a brief discussion on various searching, training, and evaluation techniques, accompanied by analysis on what we found to work th...
