We define a Mobile Database Community (MDBC) as a dynamic collection of autonomous mobile databases in which each database user can access databases in the community through a wir...
The autonomic workflow engine enables workflow to be dynamically specified and adapted using Event-Condition-Action rules. A new approach to autonomic execution of workflow process...
— Autonomous robot systems have to manage their energy wisely in order to complete their missions. Typical approaches seek to conserve energy by energy-efficient motion or senso...

— The ability of building maps of environments where they operate is one of the main requirements for autonomous mobile robots. An efficient map building process is based on a g...
We examine the practical problem of a mobile autonomous robot performing a long-duration survey task, during which it must recharge its batteries periodically. We present a scalabl...
