Abstract. People rapidly learn the capabilities of a new location, without observing every service and product. Instead they map a few observations to familiar clusters of capabili...
— We aim to perform robust and fast vision-based localization using a pre-existing large map of the scene. A key step in localization is associating the features extracted from t...
Many context- and location-aware applications request high accuracy and availability of positioning systems. In reality however, knowledge about the current position may be incompl...
This paper is a proposal for a new two-tier calculus, designed to model aspects of CORBA-like systems at the CORBA evel. The higher object level known as Oompa abstracts away from...
