Network computing seeks to utilize the aggregate resources of many networked computers to solve a single problem. In so doing it is often possible to obtain supercomputer performance from an inexpensive local area network. The drawback is that network computing is complicated and error prone when done by hand, especially if the computers have diierent operating systems and data formats and are ...

An indicator-based evolutionary multiobjective optimization algorithm (EMOA) is introduced which incorporates the contribution to the unary R2-indicator as the secondary selection criterion. First experiments indicate that the R2-EMOA accurately approximates the Pareto front of the considered continuous multiobjective optimization problems. Furthermore, decision makers’ preferences can be inclu...

This paper studies the notions of conceptual grounding and explanation (which includes notion mathematical explanation), with an aim clarifying links between them. On one hand, it analyses complex examples these two that bring to fore features are easily overlooked otherwise. other provides a formal framework for modeling both explanation, based on concept proof. Inspiration analogies drawn rec...
