Speeches
Genetic Algorithms: a Java Implementation
Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are adaptive heuristic search algorithm
premised on the evolutionary ideas of natural selection and genetic.
The basic concept of GAs is designed to simulate processes in natural
system necessary for evolution, specifically those that follow the
principles first laid down by Charles Darwin of survival of the
fittest. As such they represent an intelligent exploitation of a
random search within a defined search space to solve a problem.
This speech outlines the three most important aspects of using genetic
algorithms: (1) definition of the objective function, (2) definition
and implementation of the genetic representation, and (3) definition
and java implementation of the genetic operators. In addiction, it
will be shown how GAs can be helpful in many problems of satisfaction
of constraints and searching for optimal solution.
Speech will be given in Italian. Q&A in either Italian or English.
Business Logic with a rule engine
The speech will address the topic of Business Rules Engines, with a particular focus on JBoss Drools. We will present an implementation case and show how Drools was used to reduce complexity and increase flexibility in business logic coded in Java. Speech will be given in Italian. Q&A in either Italian or English.
