Combining high performance with low power consumption is becoming one of the primary objectives of processor designs. Instead of relying just on sleep mode for conserving power, a...
This paper discusses conditions under which some of the “higher level” mental concepts applicable to human beings might also be applicable to artificial agents. The key idea ...
Imagine a future environment where networks of agents - people, robots and software agents - interact with sophisticated sensor grids and environmental actuators to provide advice,...
We have designed and implemented a system for real-time detection of 2-D features on a reconfigurable computer based on Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA `s). We envision this ...
Our goal is to help automate the capture and broadcast of lectures to remote audiences. There are two inter-related components to the design of such systems. The technology compon...
