Issues in Designing Contemporary Video Database Systems

Key Issues in Designing Long-term Care Systems: A Response to Recent Commentaries

Biomolecular computer: roots and promises.

There are two basic issues inherent in contemporary molecular and biomolecular computing and urgent for its future development. They are: (i) fundamentals, that is general principles, starting points and correlation's between different approaches to design biomolecular information processing devices, (ii) working criteria, that is goals and principles for the choice of the device designing char...

Querying multiple-perspective video

This paper introduces a model of spatio-temporal database that we are developing to query interesting events in video sequences. The database that we are designing is pushing the state of the art for a number of elds, and there are many issues that are still waiting a satisfactory solution. In this paper we present our (albeit still partial) answer to some of these problems, and the future dire...

Challenges in Networked Real - Time Systems

| A current survey of the emerging field of networked control systems is provided. The aim is to introduce the fundamental issues involved in designing successful networked control systems, to provide a snapshot assessment of the current state of research in the field, to suggest useful future research directions, and to provide a broad perspective on recent fundamental results. Reflecting the ...

Designing Automated Vehicle Location Systems for Archived Data Analysis

Automatic vehicle location (AVL) and other automated data collection systems can provide a rich and extensive database that can be analyzed to improve transit management and performance. In the past, many such systems have failed to provide a good data archive, while others have had success. Through the use of an extensive survey and in-depth case stud­ ies of nine transit agencies, the key iss...
