This paper addresses the problem of reducing the hysteresis found in the actuation of most smart materials. They are divided in two groups: systems with no saturation (e.g. piezoe...
Good robot performance often relies upon the selection of design parameters that lead to a well conditioned Jacobian or impedance "design" matrix. In this paper, a new d...
Statically analyzing requirements specifications to assure that they possess desirable properties is an important activity in any rigorous software development project. The analys...
suitable disk layout and network transmission schedule to minimize allocated resources (buffer size, bandwidth, ..., etc.) with maximum resource utilization. In this paper, the rea...
One common problem in the practical application of volume visualization is the proper choice of transfer functions in order to color different parts of the volume meaningfully. Th...
