Several formalisms have been proposed for qualitative reasoning about regions and their topological relations in space. These formalisms, based on pairwise relations, do not allow...
We describe an extension of B-splines to surfacesof arbitrary topology, including arbitrary boundaries. The technique inherits many of the properties of B-splines: local control, ...
This paper presents an appearance–based method to automatically determine places from vision data for topological mapping. The approach exploits the continuity of the visual app...
Large-Scale multicast applications for the Internet require the availability of multicast protocols that enhance the basic connectionless IP Multicast service. A critical requirem...
—We study throughput-optimal scheduling/routing over mobile ad-hoc networks with time-varying (fading) channels. Traditional back-pressure algorithms (based on the work by Tassiu...
