— This paper presents an approach to implement virtual fixtures for surgical robot assistants. Our approach uses a weighted, multi-objective (both linear and nonlinear) constrai...
We present a methodology for modeling heterogeneous real-time components. Components are obtained as the superposition of three layers : Behavior, specified as a set of transitio...
This paper addresses the problem of camera calibration using object silhouettes in image sequences. It is known that silhouettes encode information on camera parameters by the fact...
In the current trend of software engineering, software systems are viewed as clusters of overlapping structures representing various concerns, covering heterogeneous artifacts lik...
It is becoming more and more evident that the major hindrance to the proliferation and adoption of the MDA vision in the large is the current lack of tool support. Parallax, based...
