With this paper, we contribute to this research direction and carry out a feature based comparison of local search and the well-known Christofides approximation algorithm for the Traveling Salesperson Problem. We use an evolutionary algorithm approach to construct easy and hard instances for the Christofides algorithm, where we measure hardness in terms of approximation ratio. Our results point out important features and lead to hard and easy instances for this famous algorithm.

Desirability functions (DFs) allow the preferences of the decision maker to be specified in an intuitive way. Recently, it has been shown for continuous optimization problems that an a priori transformation of the objectives by means of DFs can be used to focus the search of a hypervolume-based evolutionary algorithm on the desired part of the front. In many-objective optimization, however, the computational complexity of the hypervolume can become a crucial part. Thus, an alternative to this approach will be presented in this paper. The new algorithm operates in the untransformed objective space, but the desirability index (DI), that is, a DF-based scalarization, will be used as the second-level selection criterion in the non-dominated sorting. The diversity and uniform distribution of the resulting approximation are ensured by the use of an external archive. In the experiments, different preferences are specified as DFs, and their effects are investigated. It is shown that trade-off solutions are generated in the desired regions of the Pareto-optimal front and with a density adaptive to the DI. The efficiency of the approach with respect to increasing objective space dimension is also analysed using scalable test functions. The convergence speed is superior to other set-based and preference-based evolutionary multiobjective algorithms while the approach is of low computational complexity due to cheap DI evaluations.

As a consequence, they are also more and more used within the design of multi-objective optimization algorithms. The R2 and the Hypervolume (HV) indicator represent two popular examples. In order to understand the behavior and the approximations preferred by these indicators and algorithms, a comprehensive knowledge of the indicator’s properties is required. Whereas this knowledge is available for the HV, we presented a first approach in this direction for the R2 indicator just recently. In this paper, we build upon this knowledge and enhance the considerations with respect to the integration of preferences into the R2 indicator. More specifically, we analyze the effect of the reference point, the domain of the weights, and the distribution of weight vectors on the optimization of $\\mu$ solutions with respect to the R2 indicator. By means of theoretical findings and empirical evidence, we show the potentials of these three possibilities using the optimal distribution of $\\mu$ solutions for exemplary setups.","lang":"eng"}],"author":[{"first_name":"Tobias","full_name":"Wagner, Tobias","last_name":"Wagner"},{"first_name":"Heike","last_name":"Trautmann","orcid":"0000-0002-9788-8282","id":"100740","full_name":"Trautmann, Heike"},{"last_name":"Brockhoff","full_name":"Brockhoff, Dimo","first_name":"Dimo"}],"date_created":"2023-08-04T15:47:49Z","date_updated":"2023-10-16T13:47:58Z","publisher":"Springer Berlin Heidelberg","title":"Preference Articulation by Means of the R2 Indicator","publication_identifier":{"isbn":["978-3-642-37140-0"]},"citation":{"ama":"Wagner T, Trautmann H, Brockhoff D.

However, today's system-level design methodologies usually focus on the abstraction of digital logic and time, so that typical low-power aspects cannot be considered so far. In this paper, we present a high-level modeling approach on top of the SystemC/TLM standard to simulate power distribution and voltage based implications in a \"loosely-timed\" functional execution context. The approach reuses legacy TLM models and prevents the need for detailed lock-step process synchronization in contrast to existing methods.

In this paper, we study the problem of combined application of both techniques with regard to hard real-time systems running on cluster-based multi-core processors. To optimize the processor energy consumption, a heuristic based on simulated annealing with efficient termination criterion is proposed. The experiment results show that the proposed algorithm outperforms the existing approaches in terms of the energy reduction.

We show that if the number of outcomes per nonadaptive measurement is a polynomially-bounded function, then the expressive power of the proof system is exactly QMA.

Instead the contents decay rather slowly, in particular if the DRAM chips are cooled to low temperatures. This effect opens an attack vector on cryptographic applications that keep decrypted keys in DRAM. An attacker with access to the target computer can reboot it or remove the RAM modules and quickly copy the RAM contents to non-volatile memory. By exploiting the known cryptographic structure of the cipher and layout of the key data in memory, in our application an AES key schedule with redundancy, the resulting memory image can be searched for sections that could correspond to decayed cryptographic keys; then, the attacker can attempt to reconstruct the original key. However, the runtime of these algorithms grows rapidly with increasing memory image size, error rate and complexity of the bit error model, which limits the practicability of the approach.In this work, we study how the algorithm for key search can be accelerated with custom computing machines.

They all strive to generate an\r\n            <jats:italic>integer-grid map</jats:italic>\r\n            , i.e. a parametrization of the input surface into R\r\n            <jats:sup>2</jats:sup>\r\n            such that the canonical grid of integer iso-lines forms a quad mesh when mapped back onto the surface in R\r\n            <jats:sup>3</jats:sup>\r\n            . An essential, albeit broadly neglected aspect of these methods is the\r\n            <jats:italic>quad extraction</jats:italic>\r\n            step, i.e. the materialization of an actual quad mesh from the mere \"quad texture\". Quad (mesh) extraction is often believed to be a trivial matter but quite the opposite is true: numerous special cases, ambiguities induced by numerical inaccuracies and limited solver precision, as well as imperfections in the maps produced by most methods (unless costly countermeasures are taken) pose significant challenges to the quad extractor. We present a method to sanitize a provided parametrization such that it becomes numerically consistent even in a limited precision floating point representation. Based on this we are able to provide a comprehensive and sound description of how to perform quad extraction robustly and without the need for any complex tolerance thresholds or disambiguation rules. On top of that we develop a novel strategy to cope with common local fold-overs in the parametrization. This allows our method, dubbed\r\n            <jats:italic>QEx</jats:italic>\r\n            , to generate all-quadrilateral meshes where otherwise holes, non-quad polygons or no output at all would have been produced. We thus enable the practical use of an entire class of maps that was previously considered defective. Since state of the art quad meshing methods spend a significant share of their run time solely to prevent local fold-overs, using our method it is now possible to obtain quad meshes significantly quicker than before. We also provide libQEx, an open source C++ reference implementation of our method and thus significantly lower the bar to enter the field of quad meshing.\r\n          </jats:p>","lang":"eng"}],"date_updated":"2025-07-14T12:39:54Z","author":[{"last_name":"Ebke","full_name":"Ebke, Hans-Christian","first_name":"Hans-Christian"},{"first_name":"David","last_name":"Bommes","full_name":"Bommes, David"},{"id":"114904","full_name":"Campen, Marcel","last_name":"Campen","orcid":"0000-0003-2340-3462","first_name":"Marcel"},{"first_name":"Leif","full_name":"Kobbelt, Leif","last_name":"Kobbelt"}],"volume":32,"doi":"10.1145/2508363.2508372","publication_status":"published","publication_identifier":{"issn":["0730-0301","1557-7368"]},"citation":{"apa":"Ebke, H.-C., Bommes, D., Campen, M., &#38; Kobbelt, L.
