The goal of the project is to explore the possibility of controlling the speed of the actuator’s moving part without using any sensor. The speed has to be set accordingly to the position of the moving part at specific time. This dependency is fixed and is ...
In the origin detection problem an algorithm is given a set S of documents, ordered by creation time, and a query document D. It needs to output for every consecutive sequence of k alphanumeric terms in D the earliest document in S in which the sequence ap ...
Critiquing-based recommenders do not require users to state all of their preferences upfront or rate a set of previously experienced products. Compared to other types of recommenders, they require relatively little user effort, especially initially, despit ...
We consider the information exchange problem where each in a set of terminals transmits information to all other terminals in the set, over an undirected network. We show that the design of only a single network code for multicasting is sufficient to achie ...
The k-set-agreement problem consists for a set of n processes to agree on less than k among n possibly different Values, each initially known to only one process. The problem is at the heart of distributed computing and generalizes the celebrated consensus ...
An experimental method based on a falling pressure measurement is proposed to evaluate the through thickness air permeability of prepregs during cure, with two set-up variants. One concerns the measurement of the inherent air permeability and the other app ...
Former PhD students, post-docs and junior researchers of the Section de chimie et biochimie now holding positions at different universities and private companies remember the time they spent in Geneva and give an account of how this has set off and influen ...
This paper presents results from static loads tests performed on the new Langensand Bridge built in Switzerland. A systematic study of over 1000 models subjected to three load cases identifies a set of 11 candidate models through static measurements. Predi ...

We study the problem of distributed estimation, where a set of nodes are required to collectively estimate some parameter of interest from their measurements. Distributed implementations avoid the use of a fusion center and distribute the processing and co ...
The Vehicle Routing Problem with Soft Time Windows consists in computing a minimum cost set of routes for a fleet of vehicles of limited capacity that must visit a given set of customers with known demand, with the additional feature that each customer exp ...
