Abstract— In general, a mobile robot that operates in unknown environments has to maintain a map and has to determine its own location given the map. This introduces significant...
— Today, lightweight SLAM algorithms are needed in many embedded robotic systems. In this paper the Orthogonal SLAM (OrthoSLAM ) algorithm is presented and empirically validated....
Abstract— Service placement is a key problem in communication networks as it determines how efficiently the user service demands are supported. This problem has been traditional...
In this chapter, we present some of the biologically-inspired approaches, developed within the context of the European project BIONETS for enabling autonomic pervasive computing en...
The goal of autonomic computing is to create computing systems capable of managing themselves to a far greater extent than they do today. This paper presents Unity, a decentralize...
