Cellular networks have been developed for voice telephone service using circuit switched technology. They are usually complex and large in terms of their network scale and operational features, high speed mobility, low data rate, and wide area coverge. ...

As multi-core architectures become ubiquitous in modern computing, large scale scientific applications have to be redesigned to efficiently use the multiple cores and deliver higher performance. One major approach is the automatic detection of ...

For use in the entertainment industry, computer graphics/animation has made significant strides over the past two decades through advances in physics-based simulation and control. In this context, one of the most difficult open challenges going forward ...

Almost in any field of science and technology some sort of stability problem can appear. Instability is certainly the most important phenomena, which should be investigated before any other aspect of reality will be attacked. The stability and energy of ...

The problem of hidden oscillations in nonlinear control systems forces to develop new approaches of nonlinear oscillation theory. During initial establishment and development of theory of nonlinear oscillations in the first half of 20th century a main ...

It is well known that robotic manipulators are highly nonlinear coupling dynamic systems. It is difficult to establish an appropriate mathematical model for designing a model-based controller. The model-free feature of fuzzy logic control strategy was ...

Infrared image processing methods are applied with success in the varieties of important areas of science, medicine, surveillance and observation etc. Thermo or infrared vision systems are very popular now and are used in a wide spread areas like ...

The bottom-up concept in sustainable development has been rooted deeply in nations around the world yet regarding the implementation of neighborhood unit there is to date no effective modus operandi. Hence, building objective neighborhood unit ...

In this paper we consider an optimization problem for a deteriorating cold standby repairable system that consists of two dissimilar components and one repairman. Suppose that the life of each component satisfies the exponentially distribution and ...

The paper introduces an architecture of qualitative models for monitoring of the landscape development. There are introduced data model, class, state, sequence models, process, emergent and matroid models. The architecture and the interaction of models ...

This paper proposes a particle filter (PF) state estimator, using a platoon based model for urban traffic networks. The urban traffic network model consists of signalized intersections (representing queues of vehicles competing for service) connected to ...

It is often assumed that if practical difficulties are neglected, active systems could in principle produce arbitrary ideal behavior. This paper presents the factorization approach that is taken to derive limitations of achievable frequency responses ...

In this paper, we present a novel approach based on intelligent computing which offers to the autonomous mobile system the ability to realize these factors: recognition, learning, decision-making, and action (the principle obstacle avoidance problems). ...

Large scale system becomes more and more important in modern society. In this paper, a multi variable non-linear system (two inverted pendulum coupled by a spring) is linearized about equilibrium point and formed to decentralized optimized control ...

Interval-valued fuzzy set (IVFS) is an extension of fuzzy set in which it presents a fuzzy set with an interval-valued membership. A similarity measure is a useful tool for determining the similarity degree between two objects. It is also an important ...

The psychological buildup, which is perfect in terms of preservation, is based on the functionality of two psychological instances - the unconscious instance and the conscious instance - of the existential shield type. The psychological functionality is ...

This paper focuses on a critical component of the situational awareness (SA), the control of autonomous vertical flight for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). With the SA strategy, we proposed a two stage flight control procedure using two autonomous ...

Real quantitative data and other valuable informations are often not precise numbers but more or less nonprecise. This kind of uncertainty is also called fuzziness, and the related information is called fuzzy information. The best up-to-date description ...

The present study aims to develop a dynamical model of cement milling process as well as an autoregressive model of the errors of the previous one. Modeling is based exclusively on long term industrial data sets of five cement mills. Not only the ...

In this paper the design problem is addressed for linear discrete-time systems with state variables equality constraints. Based on an equivalent linear matrix inequality representation of bounded real lemma for discrete-time systems a new formulation is ...

Let P(λ) = Σ_i=0^kλⁱA_i(p) be a family of monic polynomial matrices smoothly dependent on a vector of real parameters p = (p₁,..., p_n). In this work we study behavior of a multiple eigenvalue of the monic polynomial family P(λ).

There is a widespread belief in scientific literature on material research that the distribution of relaxation and retardation times (DRRT) is a non-measurable quantity. In the presented contribution, we try to revise this belief. Based on the recently ...

The paper is devoted to simplifying measurement of the distribution of relaxation and retardation times (DRRT) by determining DRRT from the modulus (absolute value) of a complex frequency-domain material function. It is demonstrated that the problem may ...

This paper investigates an obstacle avoidance system based on BMI (Brain Machine Interface) and RHC (Receding Horizon Control). The system is designed intending to apply to the robotic wheelchair. The robotic wheelchair with proposed system is ...

It is well known that robotic manipulators are highly nonlinear coupling dynamic systems. It is difficult to establish an appropriate mathematical model for designing a model-based controller. The model-free feature of fuzzy logic control strategy was ...

In the field of Construction Industry (CI), identification of the appropriate activities for the built objects restoration, particularly cultural heritage objects depends highly on the previous experience of the involved workers and companies which is ...

This paper brings selected results of the recent survey targeted on adoption and utilization of advanced manufacturing technology in the Czech Republic. The main focus is on the phase of advanced manufacturing technology realized benefits in the ...

The purpose of the present study is to develop a simplified dynamical model of clinker cooling process performed in grate coolers. The responses of three different pressures to changes of the speed of the first moving grate are modeled and the dynamical ...

The current ultrasound therapy machines are implementing continuous waveform, which in fact, is not an optimum technique for therapy treatment process. Apparently, pulse waveform appearing as a more effectively way of signal generation in terms of its ...

Ultrasound medical imaging is widely used nowadays in clinical application due to its intuitive, convenient, safety, non-invasive, and low cost. However, ultrasound image formation always comes with speckle-noise which will greatly reduce the image ...
