Software capable of improving itself has been a dream of computer scientists since the inception of the field. In this work we provide definitions for Recursively Self-Improving software, survey different types of self-improving software, review the relevant literature, analyze limits on computation restricting recursive self-improvement and introduce RSI Convergence Theory which aims to predic...

Over-the-air computation (AirComp) enables fast wireless data aggregation at the receiver through concurrent transmission by sensors in application of Internet-of-Things (IoT). To further improve performance AirComp under unfavorable propagation channel conditions, we consider problem distortion minimization a reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-aided system. In particular, take into accou...

The popularity of research on intelligent multimedia services and applications is motivated by the high demand of the convenient access and distribution of pervasive multimedia data. Facing with abundant multimedia resources but inefficient and rather old-fashioned keyword-based retrieval approaches, Intelligent Multimedia Systems (IMS) demand on (i) effective filtering algorithms for storage s...

This paper proposes that intelligent processes can be completely explained by thermodynamic principles. They can equally be described by information-theoretic principles that, from the standpoint of the required optimizations, are functionally equivalent. The underlying theory arises from two axioms regarding distinguishability and causality. Their consequence is a theory of computation that ap...

Mobile Agents are mainly intended to be used for network computing applications distributed over large-scale computer networks. An intelligent mobile agent is a selfcontained process, dispatched by its principal, roaming the internet to access data and services, and carrying out its assigned decision-making and problem-solving tasks remotely. In this paper, the author will present the design an...

This Special Issue contains modified and extended versions of nine papers presented at the Fifteenth International Symposium on Methodologies for Intelligent Systems (ISMIS05) which took place in the Inn Hotel at Saratoga Springs, New York on May 25-28, 2005. The goal of ISMIS symposia [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6] is to provide a platform for a useful exchange between theoreticians and practiti...

Advances in VLSI technology are enabling the processor-memory integration to bridge the processor-memory performance gap. It is also a key driver in the innovation of a new concept called Processor-In-Memory (PIM). The work described in this paper capitalises on the extensive work carried out on PIMs in general and develops a road map for an intelligent revision of a PIM architecture referred t...

the ability to discover services in mobile ad hoc network (manet) is a major prerequisite. cluster basedcross layer intelligent service discovery for manet (cbisd) is cluster based architecture, caching ofsemantic details of services and intelligent forwarding using network layer mechanisms. the cluster basedarchitecture using semantic knowledge provides scalability and accuracy. also, the mini...

Driven by the vision of "intelligent connection everything" toward 6G, collective intelligence networked machines can be fully exploited to improve system efficiency shifting paradigm wireless communication design from naive maximalist approaches intelligent value-based approaches. In this article, we propose an on-purpose machine framework enabled joint communication, sensing, and computation ...
