In recent years, we have seen a dramatic increase in the use of data-centric distributed systems such as global grid infrastructures, sensor networks, network monitoring, and vari...
This paper presents a physics-based locomotion controller based on online planning. At each time-step, a planner optimizes locomotion over multiple phases of gait. Stance dynamics...
With the shift towards chip multiprocessors (CMPs), exploiting and managing parallelism has become a central problem in computer systems. Many issues of parallelism management boi...
The simplicity of the basic client/server model of Web services led quickly to its widespread adoption, but also to scalability and performance problems. The technological respons...
