As electronic devices become increasingly complex, ensuring their reliable, fault-free
operation is becoming correspondingly more challenging. It can be observed that, in spite of …

Contributions from the emerging fields of molecular genetics and evo-devo (evolutionary
developmental biology) are greatly benefiting the field of evolutionary computation, initiating …

This paper explores the application of an artificial developmental system (ADS) to the field of
evolutionary robotics by investigating the capability of a gene regulatory network (GRN) to …

Biological genomes have evolved over a period of millions of years and comprise thousands
of genes, even for the simplest organisms. However, in nature, only 1-2% of the genes play …

A novel approach to image compression using a gene regulatory network (GRN) based
artificial developmental system (ADS) is introduced. The proposed algorithm exploits the fact …

Evolution has shaped an incredible diversity of multicellular living organisms, whose
complex forms are self-made through a robust developmental process. This fundamental …

In the ongoing evolutionary process, biological systems have displayed a fundamental and
remarkable property of robustness, ie, the property allows the system to maintain its …

This paper presents a high level dynamic task allocation algorithm that is inspired by the
biological development process and the immune system. For a microprocessor (μ P) array, a …

From the concepts introduced in Chapter 1 it becomes clear that, as the name suggests,
evolutionary hardware (EHW) is hardware that offers the capability to change its structure …

Abstract Development as it occurs in biological organisms is defined as the process of gene
activity that directs a sequence of cellular events in an organism which brings about the …
