Hydrothermal gasification of biomass in supercritical water is one of the rare pathways that potentially allows for a complete conversion of wet waste biomass into Synthetic Natural Gas (SNG). This paper summarises an extensive process design study and dis ...
Mobile phones are becoming more and more widely used nowadays, and people do not use the phone only for communication: there is a wide variety of phone applications allowing users to select those that fit their needs. Aggregated over time, application usag ...
This paper presents a novel semi-autonomous navigation strategy designed for low throughput interfaces. A mobile robot (e.g. intelligent wheelchair) proposes the most probable action, as analyzed from the environment, to a human user who can either accept ...
In the framework of mobile augmented reality, a video stream is sent to the user with the help of a wireless communication link. To guarantee an efficient transmission, the video stream rate is controlled by adapting the encoding parameters such as to foll ...
We are interested in developing real-time applications such as games or virtual prototyping that take advantage of the user full-body input to control a wide range of entities, from a self-similar avatar to any type of animated characters, including virtua ...

User interaction with online geospatial systems is an inter-disciplinary research field that combines the two disciplines Human Computer Interaction (HCI) and geographic information sciences. In recent years online geospatial systems have been created for ...
Simulation is a key issue in the design of control electrical systems. Simulation packages using component library, such as PSIM®, are very useful to achieve this goal. The simulation model is thus easily built from the system topology (structural model). ...
The development of state-of-the-art wireless communication transceivers in semiconductor technology is a challenging process due to complexity and stringent requirements of modern communication standards such as IEEE 802.11n. This tutorial paper describes ...
This chapter presents a modeling methodology for the top-down/bottom-up design of RF systems based on systematic use of VHDL-AMS models. The model interfaces are parameterizable and pin-accurate. The designer can choose to parameterize the models using per ...
Nowadays, several techniques exist to render digital content such as graphics, audio, haptic, etc. Unfortunately, they require different faculties that cannot always be applied, e.g. providing a picture to a blind person would be useless. In this thesis, w ...
