We show that characteristic formulae for nite-state systems up to bisimulationlike equivalences (e.g., strong and weak bisimilarity) can be given in the simple branching-time temp...
Flexible general purpose robots need to tailor their visual processing to their task, on the fly. We propose a new approach to this within a planning framework, where the goal is ...
: Service-oriented architectures (SOA) are recent architectures enabling interoperable machine-to-machine process interaction by generating a comprehensive view of independent soft...
Advances of sensor and RFID technology provide significant new power for humans to sense, understand and manage the world. RFID provides fast data collection with precise identific...
Process variations will increasingly impact the operational characteristics of integrated circuits in nanoscale semiconductor technologies. Researchers have proposed various desig...
