text: The reasons that sex and recombination are so widespread remain elusive. One
popular hypothesis is that sex and recombination promote adaptation to a changing
environment. The strongest evidence that increased recombination may evolve because
recombination promotes adaptation comes from artificially selected populations.
Recombination rates have been found to increase as a correlated response to selection
on traits unrelated to recombination in several artificial selection experiments
and in a comparison of domesticated and nondomesticated mammals. There are, however,
several alternative explanations for the increase in recombination in such populations,
including two different evolutionary explanations. The first is that the form
of selection is epistatic, generating linkage disequilibria among selected loci,
which can indirectly favor modifier alleles that increase recombination. The second
is that random genetic drift in selected populations tends to generate disequilibria
such that beneficial alleles are often found in different individuals; modifier
alleles that increase recombination can bring together such favorable alleles
and thus may be found in individuals with greater fitness. In this paper, we compare
the evolutionary forces acting on recombination in finite populations subject
to strong selection, To our surprise, we found that drift accounted for the majority
of selection for increased recombination observed in simulations of small to moderately
large populations, suggesting that, unless selected populations are large, epistasis
plays a secondary role in the evolution of recombination.

text: Hybridization may influence evolution in a variety of ways. If hybrids are
less fit, the geographical range of ecologically divergent populations may be
limited, and prezygotic reproductive isolation may be reinforced. If some hybrid
genotypes are fitter than one or both parents, at least in some environments,
then hybridization could make a positive contribution. Single alleles that are
at an advantage in the alternative environment and genetic background will introgress
readily, although such introgression may be hard to detect. 'Hybrid speciation',
in which fit combinations of alleles are established, is more problematic; its
likelihood depends on how divergent populations meet, and on the structure of
epistasis. These issues are illustrated using Fisher's model of stabilizing selection
on multiple traits, under which reproductive isolation evolves as a side-effect
of adaptation in allopatry. This confirms a priori arguments that while recombinant
hybrids are less fit on average, some gene combinations may be fitter than the
parents, even in the parental environment. Fisher's model does predict heterosis
in diploid F1s, asymmetric incompatibility in reciprocal backcrosses, and (when
dominance is included) Haldane's Rule. However, heterosis arises only when traits
are additive, whereas the latter two patterns require dominance. Moreover, because
adaptation is via substitutions of small effect, Fisher's model does not generate
the strong effects of single chromosome regions often observed in species crosses.

text: The flow of genes from the dense and well-adapted centre of a species' distribution
interferes with adaptation to marginal environments, and may sharply limit a species'
range. Deterministic models of a linear habitat suggest that populations could
in principle adapt to very steep environmental gradients, by increasing their
genetic variability. However, random fluctuations in sparse populations reduce
this variance, and may be crucial in limiting the species' range.

text: 'The ability of species to migrate that has interested ecologists for many
years. Now that so many species and ecosystems face major environmental change,
the ability of species to adapt to these changes by dispersing, migrating, or
moving between different patches of habitat can be crucial to ensuring their survivial.
This book provides a timely and wide-ranging overview of the study of dispersal
and incorporates much of the latest research. The causes, mechanisms, and consequences
of dispersal at the individual, population, species and community levels are considered.
The potential of new techniques and models for studying dispersal, drawn from
molecular biology and demography, is also explored. Perspectives and insights
are offered from the fields of evolution, conservation biology and genetics. Throughout
the book, theoretical approaches are combined with empirical data, and care has
been taken to include examples from as wide a range of species as possible. '

text: Embedded software is software that interacts with physical processes. As em-
bedded systems increasingly permeate our daily lives on all levels, from micros-
copic devices to international networks, the cost-efficient development of reliable
embedded software is one of the grand challenges in computer science today. The
purpose of the workshop is to bring together researchers in all areas of computer
science that are traditionally distinct but relevant to embedded software develop-
ment, and to incubate a research community in this way. The workshop aims to cover
all aspects of the design and implementation of embedded software, inclu- ding
operating systems and middleware, programming languages and compilers, modeling
and validation, software engineering and programming methodologies, scheduling
and execution time analysis, networking and fault tolerance, as well as application
areas, such as embedded control, real-time signal processing, and telecommunications.

text: We provide an overview of the current status of HYTECH, and reflect on some
of the lessons learned from our experiences with the tool. HYTECH is a symbolic
model checker for mixed discrete-continuous systems that are modeled as automata
with piecewise-constant polyhedral differential inclusions. The use of a formal
input language and automated procedures for state-space traversal lay the foundation
for formally verifying properties of hybrid dynamical systems. We describe some
recent experiences analyzing three hybrid systems. We point out the successes
and limitations of the tool. The analysis procedure has been extended in a number
of ways to address some of the tool's shortcomings. We evaluate these extensions,
and conclude with some desiderata for verification tools for hybrid systems.

text: The assume-guarantee paradigm is a powerful divide-and-conquer mechanism for
decomposing a verification task about a system into subtasks about the individual
components of the system. The key to assume-guarantee reasoning is to consider
each component not in isolation, but in conjunction with assumptions about the
context of the component. Assume-guarantee principles are known for purely concurrent
contexts, which constrain the input data of a component, as well as for purely
sequential contexts, which constrain the entry configurations of a component.
We present a model for hierarchical system design which permits the arbitrary
nesting of parallel as well as serial composition, and which supports an assume-guarantee
principle for mixed parallel-serial contexts. Our model also supports both discrete
and continuous processes, and is therefore well-suited for the modeling and analysis
of embedded software systems which interact with real-world environments. Using
an example of two cooperating robots, we show refinement between a high-level
model which specifies continuous timing constraints and an implementation which
relies on discrete sampling.

text: Giotto is a principled, tool-supported design methodology for implementing
embedded control systems on platforms of possibly distributed sensors, actuators,
CPUs, and networks. Giotto is based on the principle that time-triggered task
invocations plus time-triggered mode switches can form the abstract essence of
programming real-time control systems. Giotto consists of a programming language
with a formal semantics, and a retargetable compiler and runtime library. Giotto
supports the automation of control system design by strictly separating platform-independent
functionality and timing concerns from platform-dependent scheduling and communication
issues. The time-triggered predictability of Giotto makes it particularly suitable
for safety-critical applications with hard real-time constraints. We illustrate
the platform-independence and time-triggered execution of Giotto by coordinating
a heterogeneous flock of Intel x86 robots and Lego Mindstorms robots.

text: Giotto provides an abstract programmer’s model for the implementation of embedded
control systems with hard real-time constraints. A typical control application
consists of periodic software tasks together with a mode switching logic for enabling
and disabling tasks. Giotto specifies time-triggered sensor readings, task invocations,
and mode switches independent of any implementation platform. Giotto can be annotated
with platform constraints such as task-to-host mappings, and task and communication
schedules. The annotations are directives for the Giotto compiler, but they do
not alter the functionality and timing of a Giotto program. By separating the
platform-independent from the platform-dependent concerns, Giotto enables a great
deal of flexibility in choosing control platforms as well as a great deal of automation
in the validation and synthesis of control software. The time-triggered nature
of Giotto achieves timing predictability, which makes Giotto particularly suitable
for safety-critical applications.
