Zonotopes are centrally symmetric polytopes with a very special structure: they are the Minkowski sum of line segments. In this paper we propose to use zonotopes as bounding volum...
The debate between "hard" positivist and "soft" interpretivist research approaches has been the subject of much discussion in the IS field. Typically, the deba...
Current research in the area of manufacturing planning and control has moved away from traditional centralized solutions towards distributed architectures that range from hierarch...
—This paper presents the work carried out by CALPE team on the development of a mathematical model used in the study and simulation of the pantograph-catenarydynamic interaction ...
We present a fully distributed multi-agent planning algorithm. Our methodology uses distributed constraint satisfaction to coordinate between agents, and local planning to ensure ...
