An increase in the performance of deteriorating systems can be achieved through the adoption of suitable maintenance policies. One of the most popular maintenance policies is the ...
Two methods have been used extensively to model resting contact for rigid body simulation. The first approach, the penalty method, applies virtual springs to surfaces in contact to...
In this paper we model the growth of living plants in a discrete approach, the graph automata based plant model representing each metamer of the plant as node of the automata. The...
— This paper discusses some topics related to the latest trends in the field of evolutionary approaches to iris recognition. It presents the results of an exploratory experimenta...
We describe two major developments in the General Network Simulation Integration System (Genesis): the support for BGP protocol in large network simulations and distribution of th...
