A framework to assess transient performance measures is introduced by generalizing the theory of the quasi Birthand-Death (QBD) paradigm to QBDs with marked time epochs (QBDm ). T...
Analytical modeling is an alternative to detailed performance simulation with the potential to shorten the development cycle and provide additional insights. This paper proposes a...
In this paper we examine adaptive time-based web applications (or presentations). These are interactive presentations where time dictates the major structure, and that require int...
We are interested in the challenging scientific pursuit of how to characterize human activities in any formal meeting situation by tracking people’s positions with a computer vi...
— A motion planner of emergency stop must make an operating humanoid robot to a stationary state under the emergency signal. It plays an important role in prevention of falling o...
