Spark assisted chemical engraving (SACE) is a method for 3D microstructuring of glass or other non-conductive materials with high aspect ratio and smooth surface quality. It is applicable for rapid prototyping of microfluidic devices, for MEMS interfacing ...
Traditional design and test of complex multimedia systems involves a large number of test vectors and is a difficult and time-consuming task. The simulation times are prohibitively long on current desktop computers. Driving actual design scenarios and timi ...
Applications of thin SixNy membranes may be found in miscellaneous fields such as MEMS and NEMS as well as biotechnology. FIB is an excellent tool in order to realize nano-structures on membranes achieving the ultimate limits and rapid prototyping. ...
In this thesis, the modelling and scheduling of remanufacturing systems is considered. An eXtended two-level Coloured Petri Net (XCPN) model is proposed for the objective of modelling remanufacturing shops. The extended model integrates the formalism of an ...
This paper presents the “caddie paradigm” a new interface for teleoperation of mobile robots. We present a prototype based on the use of a treadmill as a free-locomotion interface. The “caddie paradigm” allows for controlling a real robot by “pushing” its ...
"Lab-On-a-Chip" (LOC) systems are intended to transpose complete laboratory instrumentations on the few square centimetres of a single microfluidic chip. With such devices the objective is to minimize the time and cost associated with routine biological an ...
Location-awareness is crucial to many applications of sensor networks. Existing location surveying approaches either rely on an inflexible infrastructure or suffer from high computation and communication load. In this paper, we present Non-intEractive lOca ...
Nowadays, computers are the indispensable part of our life. They evolve rapidly and are more and more versatile. Computer networks made the remote corners of the world just a click away. But unavoidably, any software and hardware component is subject to fa ...
This thesis presents the Situation-Based Modeling Framework for Enterprise Architecture. This framework improves system modeling by making models more systemic and, therefore, making reasoning about these models easier. The context of this thesis is Enterp ...
In this work, we propose different strategies for efficiently integrating an automated speech recognition module in the framework of a dialogue-based vocal system. The aim is the study of different ways leading to the improvement of the quality and robustn ...
