— Pervasive and ubiquitous computing is enabling the implementation of “smart environments”, i.e., environments where applications support and enhance the abilities of their ...
Abstract. This paper presents a new multi-agent physics-based simulation framework (DISCOVERY), supporting experiments with self-organizing underwater sensor and actuator networks....
Abstract— Autonomous mobile agents require object recognition for high level interpretation and localization in complex scenes. In urban environments, recognition of buildings mi...
Abstract. Due to an increasing number of portable devices over 785million world Internet users, a support for quality of service (QoS) and security becomes a significant issue in ...
This paper describes a technique whereby an autonomous agent such as a mobile robot can explore an unknown environment and make a topologicalmapofit. It is assumedthat the environ...
