A Task Specific Kinematic Design Methodology With Application to a 4-DOF Haptic Interface

Task specific mechanism design for spatial linkages has remained a challenge. In this paper we present a kinematic design methodology, which combines the formalism of the Lie Group method with the effectiveness of creativity techniques from ’integrated pro ...

The DISCOVER codec: Architecture, Techniques and Evaluation

Mourad Ouaret

Distributed Video Coding is becoming more and more popular among the research community, because of its interesting theoretical contributions and because there are still many open problems waiting to be solved. This paper introduces the codec architecture ...

Recent Advances in Dynamic, Distributed Constraint Optimization

Adrian Petcu

Constraint satisfaction/optimization is a powerful paradigm for solving numerous tasks in distributed AI, including planning, scheduling and resource allocation. However, up to now, distributed algorithms for constraint reasoning (especially optimization) ...

Advances in volume measurement in unsaturated triaxial tests

Lyesse Laloui, Laurent Vulliet, Hervé Péron

In unsaturated soil mechanics testing, total volume change of the specimen is related to both water and air volume changes and cannot be measured with the same techniques as in conventional saturated soil mechanics. Over the years, several methods have bee ...

Modeling challenges in computational electromagnetics

Ivica Stevanovic

Abstract Printed multilayered media with metallizations embedded between dielectric layers are one of the most successful technologies for manufacturing planar structures with a good performanceto-price ratio. These structures range from PC board circuits, ...

Securing position and distance verification in wireless networks

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Srdan Capkun

So far, the problem of positioning and distance measurements in wireless networks has been studied in a non-adversarial setting. In this work, we analyze the resistance of positioning techniques to position and distance modification attacks; we propose two ...

Speculative planning with delegation

Daniel Thalmann, Tolga Abaci, Jan Ciger

This paper presents a novel method of collaborative problem solving for intelligent agents in virtual environments. We describe a planner for STRIPS-like domains enhanced by techniques of "delegated computing". Instead of having one central planner with co ...

Signal processing techniques based on singular value decomposition applied to modulated ECH experiments

Jean-Marc Moret, Adriano Manini

The analysis and interpretation of perturbative modulated electron cyclotron heating (MECH) discharges for power deposition localization using different diagnostics, such as electron cyclotron emission (ECE) and soft x-ray (SXR) measurements, are presented ...

A1 Genève-Lausanne du km 61 au km 63. Estimation de la durée de vie du renforcement d'une structure à partir de mesures de déformations in situ.

Le projet vise à estimer la durée de vie de la structure renforcée en se basant d'une part sur des déformations obtenues par modélisations et d'autre part sur des mesures de déformations dans les couches bitumineuses sous trafic réel. Des modélisations de ...

Failure Detectors: implementation issues and impact on consensus performance

André Schiper, Xavier Défago, Nicoleta Sergent

Due to their nature, distributed systems are vulnerable to failures of some of their parts. Conversely, distribution also provides a way to increase the fault tolerance of the overall system. However, achieving fault tolerance is not a simple problem and r ...
