This paper describes a shape signature that captures the intrinsic geometric structure of 3D objects. The primary motivation of the proposed approach is to encode a 3D shape into a...
The increasing software complexity of wireless devices and wireless data service provisioning motivates a wireless terminal management challenge. The systems management solution fo...
