Experimental computer systems research typically ignores the end-user, modeling him, if at all, in overly simple ways. We argue that this (1) results in inadequate performance eva...

Distributed test setups for efficient load, performance, scalability, interworking, and end-to-end tests are gaining importance for the assessment of distributed communicating syst...
— The subject of the present investigation is Population-based Adaptive Systems (PAS), as implemented in the NEW TIES platform. In many existing PASs two adaptation mechanisms ar...
Haptic rendering commonly implements virtual springs using DC motors with current amplifiers and encoder-based position feedback. In these schemes, quantization, discretization, ...
A fast design variation technique for mechanical systems is presented. It is used to interactively optimize mechanical characteristics while "self-assembling" or satisfy...
