A ZigBee compliant wireless controller which manages multiple tasks, such as acquiring data from sensors and driving actuators, has been purposely developed for robotic capsular endoscopy applications. Preemptive priority pseudokernel, consisting of state-driven code, coroutine, and pooled-loop algorithm, ccepted 31 March 2009 vailable online 23 April 2009

Under the assumption that wagers remain integer-valued, as would happen in most casinos, we identify the following bizarre situation: there exists a sequence of coin flips X such that some effective gambler manages to accumulate arbitrary wealth by betting on X, however any such gambler goes bankrupt whenever he tries to take his winnings outside the casino.

This paper explains how we have contributed to the development of an open learning infrastructure that manages and makes available Open Educational Resources. By removing friction between people and resources, we can leverage the long tail of learning resources, so that the abundance of learning resources will act as a platform for innovation.

We present noWorkflow, an open-source tool that systematically and transparently collects provenance from Python scripts, including data about the script execution and how the script evolves over time. During the demo, we will show how noWorkflow collects and manages provenance, as well as how it supports the analysis of computational experiments. We will also encourage attendees to use noWorkf...

We propose the GeoMap abstract data type as a unified representation for image segmentation purposes. It manages both topology (based on XPMaps) and pixel-based information, and its interface is carefully designed to support a variety of automatic and interactive segmentation methods. We have successfully used the abstract concept of a GeoMap as a foundation for the implementation of well-known...

This paper introduces MD, a complete high-performance parallel molecular dynamics simulation system. MD eeciently manages the control and data ow required for the basic molecular dynamics calculations as well as for global statistics and scientiic visualization. We brieey examine the structure of MD, present an analysis of its performance for several physical systems, and examine ways in which ...

We propose a simple and effective yet novel method designed for iOS smartphones that autonomously tracks its user’s destinations and sparse trajectory. The smartphone application manages to do that 24/7 unobtrusively in the background and without consuming noticeable by the user battery energy. In this article we present the method and our highly encouraging early experimental results.

While some recent frameworks on cognitive agents addressed the combination of mental attitudes with deontic concepts, they commonly ignore the representation of time. An exception is [1] that manages also some temporal aspects both with respect to cognition and normative provisions. We propose in this paper an extension of the logic presented in [1] with temporal intervals.
