Many proposals for evaluating cognitive architectures rely partly on an analogy between cognitive science and other sciences. We therefore reflect on the relations between cognitive science, cognitive architectures and other sciences. Some important differences caution against the misguided use of some evaluation approaches. Some unique characteristics of human intelligence motivate the need fo...

the 1979 islamic revolution of iran is considered as a turning point in the contemporary architecture of the nation. there have been apexes to the eye catching architectural improvements in the three forthcoming decades after the revolution. one of the most effective isorganizing the contests in architectural that affairs has not only removed the recession in the field but has also discarded th...

to the Cell multiprocessor J. A. Kahle M. N. Day H. P. Hofstee C. R. Johns T. R. Maeurer D. Shippy This paper provides an introductory overview of the Cell multiprocessor. Cell represents a revolutionary extension of conventional microprocessor architecture and organization. The paper discusses the history of the project, the program objectives and challenges, the design concept, the architectu...

Blockchain is a technology with disruptive, transformative and even revolutionary power [1], but currently its application faces many barriers: technological, governance, organizations and societal [2]. A significant amount of knowledge from both the blockchain and related fields is available, but there is currently no comprehensive application-ready methodology guiding organizations through th...

This paper provides an overview of the Cell Broadband Enginee Architecture (CBEA). The CBEA defines a revolutionary extension to a more conventional processor organization and serves as the basis for the development of microprocessors targeted at the computer entertainment, multimedia, and real-time market segments. In this paper, the organization of the architecture is described, as well as th...

On rare occasions in the history of science, remarkable discoveries transform human society and forever alter mankind's view of the world. Examples of such discoveries include the heliocentric theory, Newtonian physics, the germ theory of disease, quantum theory, plate tectonics and the discovery that DNA carries genetic information. The science philosopher Thomas Kuhn famously described scienc...

The optimization of dynamic problems is both widespread and difficult. When conducting dynamic optimization, a balance between reinitialization and computational expense has to be found. There are multiple approaches to this. In parallel genetic algorithms, multiple sub-populations concurrently try to optimize a potentially dynamic problem. But as the number of sub-population increases, their e...
