Abstract: . We are becoming increasingly dependent on large interconnected networks for the control of our resources. One important issue is resource protection strategies in the event of failures and/or attacks. To address this issue we investigated the effectiveness of evolving finite-state machine (FSM) strategies for winning against an adversary in a challenging Competition for Resources simulation. Although preliminary results were promising, unproductive cyclic behavior lowered performance.... (Update)

...we have seen significant speedups. We are also developing another implementation that uses re verification during evolution [17]. Two agents compete in a board game, and one of the agents evolves its strategy to improve it. The key lesson that has been learned from...
