Evolutionary computation is a useful technique for learning behaviors in multiagent systems. Among the several types of evolutionary computation, one natural and popular method is to coevolve multiagent behaviors in multiple, cooperating populations. Recenl research has suggested that r e v o lutionary systems may favor stability rather than performance in some domains. In order to improve upon...

In this project, we have chosen five important sub-projectsturbulence simulation, aeroacoustics noise simulation, structure analysis, protein simulation and nano-scale simulationsas representative topics from the fields of engineering, life science, and nanotechnology and achieved the following results. In the turbulence simulation, we conducted the world's largest engineering large eddy simula...

With more and more Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) being identified throughout the genome, some of those SNPs will be found to be located within candidate genes, allowing the researchers to use the candidate gene approach on a genomewide scale. SNPs have some drawbacks but when compared to other markers they are more efficient and SNP consortium is growing to meet the requirements of gen...

Global Aerospace Corporation (GAC) is developing a revolutionary system architecture for exploration of planetary atmospheres and surfaces from atmospheric altitudes. The work is supported by the NASA Institute for Advanced Concepts (NIAC). The innovative system architecture relies upon the use of Directed Aerial Robot Explorers (DAREs), which essentially are long-duration-flight autonomous bal...

With the emergence of more sophisticated distributed computing environment and wide spread acceptance and available of Internet and World Wide Web (WWW) technologies, a new generation of Geographic Information System (GIS) emphasizing on open architecture, distributed computing capability, mobility, interoperability, extensibility and intelligence has been receiving more attention over the past...

QUESTION why are so many leading modern scientists so dull and lacking in scientific ambition? ANSWER because the science selection process ruthlessly weeds-out interesting and imaginative people. At each level in education, training and career progression there is a tendency to exclude smart and creative people by preferring Conscientious and Agreeable people. The progressive lengthening of ...
