The virtual synchrony model for group communication has proven to be a powerful paradigm for building distributed applications. In applications that use a large number of groups, ...
Abstract— Research on humanoid robots for use in servicing tasks, e.g. fetching and delivery, attracts steadily more interest. With ”Rollin’ Justin” a mobile robotic system...
Hidden Markov models hmms and partially observable Markov decision processes pomdps provide useful tools for modeling dynamical systems. They are particularly useful for represent...
— We consider the kinematic control problem for nonholonomic mobile manipulators (NMMs) whose base contains steering wheels. For all typical tasks, the steering velocity inputs o...
