Breitwieser, Lukas (author), Hesam, A.S. (author), Rademakers, Fons (author), Luna, Juan Gómez (author), Mutlu, Onur (author)Agent-based modeling plays an essential role in gaining insights into biology, sociology, economics, and other fields. However, many existing agent-based simulation platforms are not suitable for large-scale studies due to the low performance of the underlying simulation engines. To overcome this limitation, we present a novel high...conference paper 2023

Çubukçuoglu, C. (author), Ekici, B. (author), Tasgetiren, M. Fatih (author), Sariyildiz, I.S. (author)Most of the architectural design problems are basically real-parameter optimization problems. So, any type of evolutionary and swarm algorithms can be used in this field. However, there is a little attention on using optimization methods within the computer aided design (CAD) programs. In this paper, we present Optimus, which is a new...journal article 2019

Denkers, Jasper (author)SGLR parsing is an approach that enables parsing of context-free languages by means of declarative, concise and maintainable syntax definition. Existing implementations suffer from performance issues and their architectures are often highly coupled without clear separation between their components. This work introduces a modular SGLR...master thesis 2018

Bezemer, C.P. (author), Milon, E. (author), Zaidman, A. (author), Pouwelse, J. (author)Regression testing can be done by re-executing a test suite on different software versions and comparing the outcome. For functional testing, the outcome of such tests is either pass (correct behaviour) or fail (incorrect behaviour). For non-functional testing, such as performance testing, this is more challenging as correct and incorrect are...report 2014
