Network-on-chip (NoC) performance largely depends on the underlying deadlock-free and efficient routing algorithm. The effectiveness of any adaptive routing algorithm strongly depends on the underlying selection strategy. When the routing function returns a set of admissible output channels with cardinality greater than one, a selection function is used to select the output channel to which the...

The existing tau-selection strategy, which was designed for explicit tau-leaping, is here modified to apply to implicit tau-leaping, allowing for longer steps when the system is stiff. Further, an adaptive strategy is proposed that identifies stiffness and automatically chooses between the explicit and the (new) implicit tau-selection methods to achieve better efficiency. Numerical testing demo...

Traders that operate in markets with multiple competing marketplaces must often choose with which marketplace they will trade. These choices encourage marketplaces to seek competitive advantages against each other by adjusting various parameters, such as the price they charge, or how they match buyers and sellers. Traders can take advantage of this competition to improve utility. However, appro...

The issue of strategy selection in solving the Tower of Hanoi (TOH) problem is investigated by focusing on the critical issues of whether the selection process is contingent and adaptive. The results of an experiment in which participants solved a series of different four-disk TOH problems under instructions requiring accuracy maximization vs. effort minimization are presented. A computer simul...

In order to automatically select the most suitable strategy for a specific problem without any prior knowledge, in this paper, we present an adaptive parameter selection technique for strategy adaptation in differential evolution (DE). First, a simple strategy adaptation mechanism is employed to implement the adaptive strategy selection in DE. Then, the probabilitymatching-based adaptive parame...
