Elvis: situated speech and gesture understanding for a robotic chandelier
We describe a home lighting robot that uses directional spotlights to create complex lighting scenes. The robot senses its visual environment using a panoramic camera and attempts...

Message-Optimal and Latency-Optimal Termination Detection Algorithms for Arbitrary Topologies
An important problem in distributed systems is to detect termination of a distributed computation. A computation is said to have terminated when all processes have become passive ...
