It is becoming more important to design systems capable of performing high-level management and control tasks in interactive dynamic environments. At the same time, it is difficul...
Abstract--Mobile phones are increasingly able to read autoid labels, such as barcodes or RFID tags. As virtually all consumer products sold today are equipped with such a label, th...
Large amount of uncertain data is inherent in many novel and important applications such as sensor data analysis and mobile data management. A probabilistic threshold range aggrega...
This paper introduces the current developments of the SPIF (Syst`eme de Prototypage `a Implantation rapide et Faible coˆut) project. The goal of SPIF is to provide a low cost envi...
Shape memory alloy (SMA) based actuators have a number of attributes which make them useful for robotic applications. Unfortunately their response is relatively slow, being limite...
