This paper describes the usability evaluation of a WebGIS. The system under evaluation has been developed for a real-world community in the Swiss canton de Vaud, namely for two people who are involved in wine making. The system's usability is tested with u ...

The dynamic control of the beamwidth of a partially reflective surface (PRS) antenna is reported for the first time. First, a design methodology is proposed by revisiting the PRS antenna theory from the perspective of its reconfigurable beamwidth operation ...

This research presents methods for performance analysis in sports through the integration of Global Positioning System (GPS) measurements with Inertial Navigation System (INS). The described approach focuses on strapdown inertial navigation using Micro-Ele ...
Fast adaptation biases the perceived motion direction of a subsequently presented ambiguous test pattern (R. Kanai & F. A. Verstraten, 2005). Depending on both the duration of the adapting stimulus (ranging from tens to hundreds of milliseconds) and the du ...
Accurate trajectory prediction plays a fundamental role in advanced air traffic control operations, because it forms the basis for (among others) conflict detection and resolution schemes. It has been demonstrated that improved trajectory prediction accura ...

One of the main problems of today’s Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) systems is the lack of reliable data quality assessment within or shortly after the airborne survey campaign. This paper presents the development and implementation of a tool that allows com ...

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 ...

The Global Positioning System (GPS) is a trilateration system which allows to compute the position of a receiver from the time the signals need to propagate from the satellites down to the receiver. Since the Selective Availability (SA) was turned off in 2 ...
The study of gravity-driven flows (avalanches, landslides, etc.) has made significant progress in the last decade, mainly in the field of numerical models. However, these models rely on a speculative basis and, for lack of field data, modeling the internal ...
In this paper, we study the wireless synchronization prob- lem which requires devices activated at different times on a congested single-hop radio network to synchronize their round numbering. We assume a collection of n synchronous devices with access to ...
