We have established a novel control system for combining the parallel execution of deterministic and non-deterministic medical imaging applications on a single platform, sharing t...
— The design procedure for a totally decoupled XY flexure parallel kinematic manipulator is presented in this paper. The designed XY stage is featured with flexure hinges and a...
Wide-area distributed systems like computational grids are emergent infrastructures for high-performance parallel applications. On these systems, communication mechanisms have to ...
