Let A be a C*-algebra, and let X be a Banach A-bimodule. Johnson [B. E. Johnson, 'Local derivations on C*-algebras are derivations', Trans. Amer Math. Soc. 353 (2000), 313-325] showed that local derivations from A into X are derivations. We extend this con ...
Future climate frameworks, the localization of energy policy, energy-water linkages, consumer-driven innovation, are among the key words that keep utility strategists awake. This essay is an attempt to put these questions into context and derive a possible ...
We present a decentralized, scalable approach to assembling a group of heterogeneous parts into different products using a swarm of robots. While the assembly plans are predetermined, the exact sequence of assembly of parts and the allocation of subassembl ...

In this paper the problem of dynamic manipulation of active objects by throwing is studied. Here active object means a multi-body object that can actively move its body parts. The prime reason for selecting this problem is existence of conceptual analogy b ...
The automatic analysis of real-life, long-term behavior and dynamics of individuals and groups from mobile sensor data constitutes an emerging and challenging domain. We present a framework to classify people's daily routines (defined by day type, and by g ...
In this Note we derive a posteriori error estimates for a multiscale method, the so-called heterogeneous multiscale method, applied to elliptic homogenization problems. The multiscale method is based on a macro-to-micro formulation. The macroscopic method ...
Aggregate scheduling is one of the most promising solutions to the issue of scalability in networks, like DiffServ networks and high speed switches, where hard QoS guarantees are required. For networks of FIFO aggregate schedulers, the main existing suffic ...
Powered wheelchair users want to be active drivers, not just passengers. However, in some situations (varying from person to person), they may require assistance; hence, research is being carried out into the development of 'smart' wheelchairs. Predominant ...
The influence of applied stress on the equilibrium shape of a liquid intergranular inclusion is derived to show that (i) results differ significantly from those for a void, and (ii) this difference explains the experimental data if liquid inclusions behave ...
in finite sample studies redescending M-estimators outperform bounded M-estimators (see for example, Andrews et al. [1972. Robust Estimates of Location. Princeton University Press, Princeton]). Even though redescenders arise naturally out of the maximum li ...
