Coming up with a plan for a team that operates in a non-deterministic environment is a complex process, and the problem is further complicated by the need for team members to comm...
With the increasing importance of energy consumption considerations and new requirements of emerging applications, in-network processing of information gains recognition as a viab...
Abstract—A methodology for estimating the force distribution that occurs along a needle shaft during insertion is described. To validate the approach, an experimental system for ...
