— In the field of mobile robotics, trajectory details are seldom taken into account to qualify robot performance. Most metrics rely mainly on global results such as the total ti...
Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) for real-time systems has been extensively studied to save energy. Previous studies consider the probabilistic distributions of tasks’ execution ti...
In this paper we present the design, implementation and evaluation of a runtime system based on collective I/O techniques for irregular applications. We present two models, namely...
A fast design variation technique for mechanical systems is presented. It is used to interactively optimize mechanical characteristics while "self-assembling" or satisfy...
Inspired by the efficient method of locomotion of the rattlesnake Crotalus cerastes, the objective of this work is automatic design through genetic programming, of the fastest poss...
