“Exploration and exploitation are the two cornerstones of problem solving by search.” For
more than a decade, Eiben and Schippers' advocacy for balancing between these two …

An indispensable part of our personal and working lives, computing has also become
essential to industries and governments. Steady improvements in computer hardware have …

We describe a modular rewriting system for translating optimization problems written in a
domain-specific language (DSL) to forms compatible with low-level solver interfaces …

During the last decade a new trend of approaches has emerged, which considers models
not just documentation artefacts, but also central artefacts in the software engineering field …

Code and design smells are poor solutions to recurring implementation and design
problems. They may hinder the evolution of a system by making it hard for software …

The adjoint method provides an efficient way to compute sensitivities for system models with
a large number of inputs. However, implementing the adjoint method requires significant …

Spoofax is a language workbench for efficient, agile development of textual domain-specific
languages with state-of-the-art IDE support. Spoofax integrates language processing …

Advances in machine learning (ML) and automated experimentation are poised to vastly
accelerate research in polymer science. Data representation is a critical aspect for enabling …

Context: In this study we report on a Systematic Map** Study (SMS) for Domain-Specific
Languages (DSLs), based on an automatic search including primary studies from journals …

A stencil computation repeatedly updates each point of ad-dimensional grid as a function of
itself and its near neighbors. Parallel cache-efficient stencil algorithms based on" trapezoidal …
