A predictive architecture is presented to react on sensor data in the case of high speed motion and low bandwidth sensor data. This concept is used for the vision based control of an industrial robot (KUKA) to track a contour at a speed of 1.6 m/s. The vision task can be performed very fast since only 2 rows of the image are analyzed. In this way an accuracy of 0.3 mm is reached in spite of unc...

A new series of silicon-containing derivatives of 2-aryl-3-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)propanenitriles were synthesized and evaluated for fungicidal activities against rice sheath blight and powdery mildew on cucumber. These derivatives exhibited higher efficacy than reference fungicides.

Governments around the world are investing significant resources in the development of logistics clusters. This paper develops a methodology for identifying them and applies it to answer several lingering questions in the context of the US. It contributes to a more general debate in the general industrial clusters literature: while many authors see industrial clusters growing, others see them d...

The establishment of industrial ecosystem is the key to realize the economical sustainable development. This article analyses the related literatures of industry ecosystem, and points out the industry ecosystem's hierarchy. Then on the basis of theoretical analysis, the article proposes the building strategy of the industry ecosystem, from three aspects of the microcosmic, the intermediate and ...
