This paper describes the behavior observed in a class of cellular automata that we have defined as "dissipative", i.e., cellular automata for which the external environm...
This paper describes the work-in-progress of creating an artificial 3D environment and robot, suitable for educational simulation. A visual 3D vehicle robot, equipped with a monoc...
Computational grids hold great promise in utilizing geographically separated heterogeneous resources to solve large-scale complex scientific problems. However, a number of major ...
We present a general joint component framework model that is capable of exhibiting complex behavior of joints in articulated figures. The joints are capable of handling non-ortho...
This paper presents a requirements engineering framework based on the notions of Actor, Goal, and Intentional Dependency, and applies it to a case study in the field of Informatio...
