This contribution presents an ongoing study focused on how location awareness feature modifies collaboration in the context of mobile computing. First it describes the environment we designed and implemented in the form of a mobile game called CatchBob!. T ...
A general result is proven concerning time-variant displacement equations with positive solutions in a general operatorial setting. It is then shown that the solutions of several completion problems, recently considered in connection with classical interpo ...

Thin adhesive films have become increasingly important in applications involving packaging, coating or for advertising. Once a film is adhered to a substrate, flaps can be detached by tearing and peeling, but they narrow and collapse in pointy shapes. Simi ...
Piezoelectricity is the propriety of materials that relates mechanical deformation as a function of applied voltage and vice-versa. The advantage of using these materials as actuators is the fast response and low power consumption when compared with tradit ...
Although straight point to point movements have been successfully modeled until now, many reaching movements are not straight neither in hand Cartesian nor in joint angles space, such as for example movements directed towards oneself. Addressing the genera ...
The crystal structure of the new synthetic compound Ba-5[B20O33(OH)(4)] . H2O was established by the methods of X-ray diffraction (a Stoe IPDS diffractometer, lambda MoKalpha, 1860 independent reflections, anisotropic refinement, R = 1.95%, localization of ...
Stabilized finite elements on strongly anisotropic meshes are considered. The design of the stability coefficients is addressed for both the advection-diffusion and the Stokes problems when using continuous piecewise linear finite elements on triangles. Us ...
We present a formalism based on the method of moment to solve the volume integral equation using tetrahedral (3-D) and triangular (2-D) elements. We introduce a regularization scheme to handle the strong singularity of the Green's tensor. This regularizati ...

In 1977, D. G. Kendall [J. Appl. Probab. 28 (1991), no. 1, 225--230; MR1090460 (92f:60135)] considered diffusions of shape induced by independent Brownian motions in Euclidean space. In this paper, we consider a different class of diffusions of shape, indu ...
Starting with a randomly distributed sensor array with unknown sensor orientations, array calibration is needed before target localization and tracking can be performed using classical triangulation methods. In this paper, we assume that the sensors are on ...
