- This paper presents a new control method to drive an array of wet Shape Memory Alloy actuators utilizing a Matrix Manifold and Valve system (MMV). The MMV architecture allows a v...
There exists a need for high performance, read-only mainmemory database systems for OLAP-style application scenarios. Most of the existing works in this area are centered around t...
In this paper, we aim to ascribe a meaning to SysML activity diagrams. To this end, we propose a dedicated algebraic-like language, namely activity calculus, and an operational se...
Abstract. P systems (known also as membrane systems) are biologically motivated theoretical models of distributed and parallel computing. The two most interesting questions in the ...
An automated tether system has been developed for the purpose of improving the efficiency of micro-gravity activities of fully suited astronauts. System features include gripping ...
