We examine distributed time-synchronization in mobile ad-hoc and sensor networks. The problem is to estimate the skews and offsets of clocks of all the nodes with respect to an arb...
Continuum robots, which are composed of multiple concentric, precurved elastic tubes, can provide dexterity at diameters equivalent to standard surgical needles. Recent mechanicsba...
