Despite the advancements of concurrency theory in the past decades, practical concurrent programming has remained a challenging activity. Fundamental problems such as data races an...
— Sampling-based kinodynamic planners, such as the popular RRT algorithm, have been proposed as promising solutions to planning for systems with dynamics. Nevertheless, complex s...
Abstract— Miniaturization of Programmable Matter is a major challenge. Much of the difficulty stems from size and power requirements of internal actuators. This paper demonstrat...
Abstract— Flexible needles with bevel tips are being developed as useful tools for minimally invasive surgery and percutaneous therapy. When such a needle is inserted into soft t...
