The control of cranes and nonholonomic robots has gained increased interest mainly because of the civilian and military industrial need to achieve fast and accurate transport of goods and equipment. Old and new harbors are now venturing into fully automate ...
Catalogue services provide the discovery and location mechanisms that allow users and applications to locate data on Grids. Replication is a highly desirable feature in these services, since it provides the scalability and reliability required on large dat ...
The enormous growth of digital music databases has led to a comparable growth in the need for methods that help users organize and access such information. One area in particular that has seen much recent research activity is the use of automated technique ...

Kinetic hard-modelling of multivariate spectroscopic data [1, 2] is a well-established method for the determination of reaction mechanisms and associated rate constants. Kinetic hard-modelling relies on a hard model defined by kinetic rate laws and require ...
Currently there is a strong trend toward sector-specific regulatory authorities across sectors and countries. However, liberalization has not led to a common European regulatory model. The circumstance that different old and new regulatory authorities exis ...

What does a blind entity need in order to determine the geometry of the set of photocells that it carries through a changing lightfield? In this paper, we show that very crude knowledge of some statistical properties of the environment is sufficient for th ...
In this paper we propose an application of distributed model predictive control techniques to the problem of driving a group of autonomous agents towards a consensus point, i.e. a negotiated position in their state space. Agents are assumed to be governed ...
This paper empirically assesses the effect of liberalisation and competition on innovation in the postal sector. The analysis is restricted to end-to-end competition. The effect on the incentives to innovate of public ownership, letter volume, and other co ...
