Abstract Non-uniform, dynamically adaptive meshes are a useful tool for reducing computational complexities geophysical simulations that exhibit strongly localised features such as is the case tsunami, hurricane or typhoon prediction. Using example of shallow water solver, this study explores set metrics to distinguish performance numerical methods using adaptively refined versus uniform indepe...

Vehicular Visible Light communication (VVLC) presents a new paradigm for providing vehicle connectivity, increasing road safety, and achieving autonomous driving. It can be chosen as an alternative solution to radio frequency-based inter-vehicle systems and/or complementary ensure redundancy. Nevertheless, there are still significant challenges in incorporating visible light into vehicular netw...

In many complex robotics systems, interaction takes place in all directions between human, robot, and environment. Performance of such a system depends on this interaction, and a proper evaluation of a system must build on a proper modeling of interaction, a relevant set of performance metrics, and a methodology to combine metrics into a single performance value. In this paper, existing models ...
