The performance of haptic application is highly sensitive to communication delays and losses of data. It implies several constraints in developing networked haptic applications. Th...
Large-scale distributed video surveillance systems pose new scalability challenges. Due to the large number of video sources in such systems, the amount of bandwidth required to t...
As knowledge bases move into the landscape of larger ontologies and have terabytes of related data, we must work on optimizing the performance of our tools. We are easily tempted t...
