When the human fingertip is pressed against a surface or bent, the hemodynamic state of the fingertip is altered due to mechanical interactions between the fingernail and bone. No...
This paper presents an advanced leg module developed for HRP-2. HRP-2 is a new humanoid robotics platform, which we have been developing in phase two of HRP. HRP is a humanoid rob...
The paper describes a metaobject architecture for distributed fault tolerant systems. Basically metaobject protocols enables functional objects to be independent from meta-function...
In the near future, semiconductor technology will allow the integration of multiple processors on a chip or multichipmodule (MCM). In this paper we investigate the architecture an...
High-throughput real-time systems require non-standard and costly hardware and software solutions. Modern workstation can represent a credible alternative to develop realtime inte...
