This paper investigates the performance and the results of an evolutionary algorithm (EA) specifically designed for evolving the decision engine of a program (which, in this context, is called bot) that plays Planet Wars. This game, which was chosen for the Google Artificial Intelligence Challenge in 2010, requires the bot to deal with multiple target planets, while achieving a certain degree of adaptability in order to defeat different opponents in different scenarios. The decision engine of the bot is initially based on a set of rules that have been defined after an empirical study, and a genetic algorithm (GA) is used for tuning the set of constants, weights and probabilities that those rules include, and therefore, the general behaviour of the bot. Then, the bot is supplied with the evolved decision engine and the results obtained when competing with other bots (a bot offered by Google as a sparring partner, and a scripted bot with a pre-established behaviour) are thoroughly analysed. The evaluation of the candidate solutions is based on the result of non-deterministic battles (and environmental interactions) against other bots, whose outcome depends on random draws as well as on the opponents' actions. Therefore, the proposed GA is dealing with a noisy fitness function. After analysing the effects of the noisy fitness, we conclude that tackling randomness via repeated combats and reevaluations reduces this effect and makes the GA a highly valuable approach for solving this problem.

The reduction of the energy consumption in the domain of the embedded systems is becoming the most important design goal due to the increasing use of battery powered consumer devices. Previous research has pointed out the instruction memory organisation as one of the major sources of energy consumption of the embedded systems. Due to this fact, the introduction of any enhancement in this component of the system becomes crucial in order to decrease this energy bottleneck. The purpose of this paper is to present a highlevel energy analysis of the loop buffer schemes that exist in the embedded systems. The crucial energy analysis that is presented in this paper not only proposes a method to evaluate different loop buffer schemes for a certain application, but also guides embedded systems designers to make the correct decision in the trade-offs that exist between the energy budget, the required performance, and the area cost of the embedded system. Experimental results used in this analysis show that, the search of energy savings (up to 76%) has to take into account the performance penalty, the area cost, and the impact of the implementation technology in order to choose the most suitable enhancement that has to be introduced in the instruction memory organisation from the point of view of the energy consumption.

Discovering genetic basis of diseases is an important goal and a challenging problem in bioinformatics research. Inspired by network-based global inference approach, Semi-global inference method is proposed to capture the complex associations between phenotypes and genes. The proposed method integrates phenotype similarities and protein-protein interactions, and it establishes the profile vectors of phenotypes and proteins. Then the relevance between each candidate gene and the target phenotype is evaluated. Candidate genes are then ranked according to relevance mark and genes that are potentially associated with target disease are identified based on this ranking. The model selects nodes in integrated phenotype-protein network for inference, by exploiting Phenotype Similarity Threshold (PST), which throws lights on selection of similar phenotypes for gene prediction problem. Different vector relevance metrics for computing the relevance marks of candidate genes are discussed. The performance of the model is evaluated on Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM) data sets and experimental evaluation shows high performance of proposed Semi-global method outperforms existing global inference methods.

GPUs are increasingly used as compute accelerators. With a large number of cores executing an even larger number of threads, significant speed-ups can be attained for parallel workloads. Applications that rely on atomic operations, such as histogram and Hough transform, suffer from serialization of threads in case they update the same memory location. Previous work shows that reducing this serialization with software techniques can increase performance by an order of magnitude. We observe, however, that some serialization remains and still slows down these applications. Therefore, this paper proposes to use a hash function in both the addressing of the banks and the locks of the scratchpad memory. To measure the effects of these changes, we first implement a detailed model of atomic operations on scratchpad memory in GPGPU-Sim, and verify its correctness. Second, we test our proposed hardware changes. They result in a speed-up up to 4.9× and 1.8× on implementations utilizing the aforementioned software techniques for histogram and Hough transform applications respectively, with minimum hardware costs.

This paper proposes a new model for predicting the optimal warfarin dosing for African American patients. The prediction model is created using the multivariable regression method. The accuracy of dosing prediction is directly related to patient's safety. We show that the proposed model has better accuracy compare to all other available prediction methods for optimal dosing of warfarin.
