Abstract. We consider the use of a cluster system for managing autonomous databases. In order to improve the performance of read-only queries, we strive to exploit user requirement...
An unfavourable phenomenon is observed: current electronic markets are fragmented and have formed a set of autonomously distributed product information islands. This leads to hete...
In this paper we discuss landmark based absolute localization of tiny autonomous mobile robots in a known environment. Landmark features are naturally occurring as it is not allow...
This paper presents micro self-reconfigurable modular robotic systems using shape memory alloy (SMA). The system is designed so that various shapes can be autonomously formed by a ...
Abstract—Developing autonomous systems that patrol environments for detecting intruders is a topic of increasing relevance in security applications. An important aspect of these ...
