— Vision-based control of wheeled vehicles is a difficult problem due to nonholonomic constraints on velocities. This is further complicated in the control of vehicles with drif...
Scientific workflows have recently emerged as a new paradigm for representing and managing complex distributed scientific computations and data analysis, and have enabled and acce...
Grid computing platforms require automated and distributed resource allocation with controllable quality-of-service (QoS). Market-based allocation these features using the compleme...
Object-oriented technologies are frequently used to design and implement distributed applications. Object replication is a well-established approach to increase the dependability f...
Classical visual servoing techniques need a strong a priori knowledge of the shape and the dimensions of the observed objects. In this paper, we present how the 2 1/2 D visual serv...
