With the rapid performance improvements in low-cost PCs, it becomes increasingly practical and cost-effective to implement large-scale video-on-demand (VoD) systems around parallel...
In most advanced real-time control applications such as service robots, the tasks have different criticality, flexible timing constraints and variable execution time. For instance...
This paper presents a technique for an intelligent robot to adaptively behave in unforeseen and dynamic circumstances. Since the traditional methods utilized the relatively reliabl...
To overcome the rising complexity of computing systems, the paradigms of Autonomic Computing and Organic Computing have been introduced. By using an observer/controller architectur...
Underwater survey by a team of autonomous robots brings couple of problems caused mainly by the communication restrictions due to the nature of environment. Communication range and...
