BA has been mostly used to and birds. SI first inaugurated by Beni [4] in cellular robotics resolve diverse kind of optimization problems and one of major system. Researchers are attracted with the behavior of flocks of issue faced by BA is frequently captured in local optima social insects from many years. The individual member of meanwhile handling the complex real world problems. Many these flocks can achieve hard tasks with the help of authors improved the standard BA with different mutation collaboration among others [5]; however, such colonies behave strategies but an exhausted comprehensive overview about without any centralized control. SI is very famous in bio- mutation strategies is still lacking. This paper aims to furnish a inspired algorithms, computer science, and computational concise and comprehensive study of problems and challenges that intelligence. -

Projekt: Napolnimo Stožice
PROJEKT: NAPOLNIMO STOŽICE KAKŠNA SO DEJSTVA? Mestna občina Ljubljana bo v juliju 2010 dokončala izgradnjo nogometnega stadiona in športne dvorane v Stožicah. Nogometni stadion, na katerem je 16.400 sedežev, je največji stadion v Sloveniji, na njem pa bo od sredine avgusta imel svoj domicil NK Olimpija Ljubljana, ki nastopa v 1. Slovenski nogometni ligi (verjetno bo na njem igral tudi drugoligaš, NK Interblock). Stadion bo zaenkrat še brez pomožnih igrišč, tako da bodo mladinske selekcije NK Olimpija Ljubljana še naprej trenirale in nastopale v Jami za Bežigradom, vendar naj bi se tudi to uredilo v roku enega leta. NK Olimpija Ljubljana bo s prehodom na stadion v Stožice naredil ogromen korak naprej na področju infrastrukture, kakovosti nogometnega igrišča in zelenice, kakovosti samega okolja (stadiona), na katerem se bodo igrale tekme, občutno se bodo izboljšali tako pogoji za igralce kot tudi za gledalce. Hkrati s tem pa je pred klubom nov izjemno velik izziv – kako napolniti nogometni stadion s 16.400 sedeži? Izziv je še toliko večji, če poznamo dejstva, da je v sezoni 2009/10 povprečno število gledalcev na tekmah 1. SNL bilo 847, da je domače tekme NK Olimpija Ljubljana v zadnji sezoni povprečno obiskovalo 1.200 gledalcev na tekmo (stadion Ljubljane v Šiški ima kapaciteto 2.000 gledalcev), domače tekme NK Maribor (ki ima edini primerljiv stadion z ljubljanskim) povprečno 1.700 gledalcev in da je bil največji obisk (6.000 gledalcev) na tekmi med NK Maribor in NK Olimpija v Mariboru. Skupno je vse tekme 1. SNL obiskalo 152.600 gledalcev. ZAKAJ JE PROJEKT »NAPOLNIMO STOŽICE« POMEMBEN? Kakovost slovenskega klubskega nogometa ni na reprezentančnem nivoju, zgoraj navedena dejstva pa pričajo, da je med gledalci zanimanje za ogled tekem relativno majhno. -
Survivable Networks Via UAV Swarms Guided by Decentralized Real-Time
Survivable Networks via UAV Swarms Guided by Decentralized Real-Time Evolutionary Computation George Leu Jiangjun Tang School of Engineering and Information Technology School of Engineering and Information Technology UNSW Canberra UNSW Canberra Canberra, Australia Canberra, Australia [email protected] [email protected] Abstract—The survivable network concept refers to contexts to provide ground network survivability regardless of the where the wireless communication between ground agents needs ground agents’ movements. To address the challenges men- to be maintained as much as possible at all times, regardless tioned above, we propose an implementation of the UAVs’ of any adverse conditions that may arise. In this paper we propose a nature-inspired approach to survivable networks, in mobility which is inspired from the classic boids model of which we bring together swarm intelligence and evolutionary Reynolds [4]. The proposed model uses modified versions computation. We use an on-line real-time Genetic Algorithm to of the two key concepts of the classic boids: the interaction optimize the movements of an UAV swarm towards maintain- based on the concept of neighborhood, and the position update ing communication between the ground agents. The proposed rule based on the weighted sum of a set of primitive forces. approach models the ground agents and the UAVs as boids- based swarms, and optimizes the movement of the UAVs using The modifications we propose are that the neighborhood is different instances of the GA running independently on each UAV. network-based [5] instead of the classic vision-based [4], and The UAV coordination mechanism is an implicit one, embedded the update rule includes forces from outside the swarm, not in the fitness function of the Genetic Algorithm instances. -

The European Commission support for the production of this publication does not constitute an endorsement of the contents which reflects the views only of the authors, and the Commission cannot be held responsi•ble for any use which may be made of the information contained therein. Introduction In recent years, we have seen the rise of the anti-liberal democracy politics in Eastern European EU member states. In the meantime, those trends are becoming visible in some Western European Countries but also USA. The situation in Poland and Hungary is maybe the best example of such politics where citizens are giving support to political parties whose political objectives are against the EU rule of law principles and against some fundamental human rights. Recent refugee crisis has also deepen those concerns. This is a clear sign that the citizens of Eastern European EU member states are willing to give up of some of the fundamental human rights values such as freedom of expression, freedom of assembly, free media, civil society or independent judiciary. Those trends are seriously harming EU rule of law principles but also are derogating human rights and democratic standards. -

A Hybrid Bat Algorithm Iztok Fister Jr.,∗ DuˇsanFister,† and Xin-She Yang‡ Abstract Swarm intelligence is a very powerful technique to be used for optimization purposes. In this paper we present a new swarm intelligence algorithm, based on the bat algorithm. The Bat algorithm is hybridized with differential evolution strategies. Besides showing very promising results of the standard benchmark functions, this hybridization also significantly improves the original bat algorithm. To cite paper as follows: I. Jr. Fister, D.

INTRODUCTION Nature has always been an inspiration for researchers. In the past, many new nature- inspired algorithms have been developed to solve hard problems in optimization. In general, there are two main concepts developed in bio-inspired computation: 1. evolutionary algorithms, 2. swarm intelligence algorithms. The Evolutionary algorithms are optimization techniques [7] that base on the Darwin's principle of survival of the fittest [5]. It states that in nature the fittest indivi- duals have greater chances to survive. The Evolutionary algorithms consist of the follow- ing disciplines: genetic algorithms, evolution strategies, genetic programming, evolutionary programming, differential evolution. Although all these algorithms or methods have been developed independently, they share similar characteristics (like variation operators, selection operators) when solving problems. -

Anti Match-Fixing Top Training
ANTI MATCH-FIXING TOP TRAINING Booklet on Match-Fixing (national framework) Match-Fixing: Institutional, Normative, Legal and Preventive Framework in Slovenia 1. Status of Implementation of Macolin Convention on the Manipulation of Sport Competitions. On April 2015 Government of Republic of Slovenia passed an Official position1 on Proposal for a Council Decision on the signing, on behalf of the European Union, of the Council of Europe Convention on the manipulation of sports competitions with regard to matters not related to substantive criminal law and judicial cooperation in criminal matters2, where stipulated that “reports on match fixing connected with sports betting were on the rise since 2000. Bigger commercialization of the sport and increasing media coverage led to bigger economic inputs in achieving sport results, where the problematique of match-fixing arises. At the same time the sports betting market, supported by modern ICT, enables legal and mostly illegal actions connected with match-fixing leading to massive financial inputs and revenues. Some research estimate that global match-fixing market comprises of around 30 billion EUR.” Convention was signed on 2 June 2016, however up until now it is not ratified. Ministry responsible for the implementation of the Convention is Ministry of Education, Science and Sport of Republic of Slovenia. Therefore, it is hard to assess the implementation of the Convention. 2. Most important match-fixing scandals in the last decade (which sport, actors involve, legal framework used) In 2012 Erdžan Bećiri, football player of several clubs in Slovenian First Football League admitted in court, that he was guilty of collaboration in match fixing3. -
