The local, covariant, continuous, anticommuting and nilpotent Becchi-RouetStora-Tyutin (BRST) and anti-BRST symmetry transformations for all the fields of a (0 + 1)-dimensional spinning relativistic particle are obtained in the framework of augmented superfield approach to BRST formalism. The trajectory of this super-particle, parametrized by a monotonically increasing evolution parameter τ , i...

As a testbed for various structural health monitoring (SHM) technologies, a super-tall structure – the 610 m-tall Guangzhou Television and Sightseeing Tower (GTST) in southern China – is currently under construction. This study aims to explore state-of-the-art wireless sensing technologies for monitoring the ambient vibration of such a super-tall structure during construction. The very nature o...

Information systems are increasingly oriented in the direction of large-scale integration due to the explosion of multi-source information. It is therefore important to discuss how to reasonably organize and present information from multiple structures and sources on the same information system platform. In this study, we propose a 3C (Components, Connections, Container) component model by comb...

Oblivious RAM (ORAM) is an established technique to hide the access pattern to an untrusted storage system. With ORAM, a curious adversary cannot tell what data address the user is accessing when observing the bits moving between the user and the storage system. All existing ORAM schemes achieve obliviousness by adding redundancy to the storage system, i.e., each access is turned into multiple ...

Grid systems integrate distributed resources to form self-organization and self-management autonomies. With the widespread development of grid systems around the world, grid collaboration for largescale computing has become a prevalent research topic. In this paper, the authors propose a meta-grid framework, named the Grid-to-Grid (G2G) framework, to harmonize autonomic grids in realizing a gri...

This paper proposes a novel approach to generate stereo video in which the zoom magnification is not constant. Although this has been achieved mechanically in a conventional way, it is necessary for this approach to develop a mechanically complex system for each stereo camera system. Instead of a mechanical solution, we employ an approach from the software side: by using a pair of zoomed and no...

A 3D display using super high-density multiview images should enable reproduction of natural stereoscopic views. In the super multi-view display system, viewpoints are sampled at an interval narrower than the diameter of the pupil of a person’s eye. With the parallax produced by a single eye, this system can pull out the accommodation of an eye to an object image. We are now working on a real-t...

In this paper, a robust local controller has been designed to balance the power for distributed energy resources (DERs) in an islanded microgrid. Three different DER types are considered in this study; photovoltaic systems, battery energy storage systems, and synchronous generators. Since DER dynamics are nonlinear and uncertain, which may destabilize the power system or decrease the performanc...

Image super-resolution algorithm improves image resolution in software. Before image tracking, it needs to enhance image resolution to improve the image tracking accuracy of the bionic eye. The traditional super-resolution reconstruction method can’t satisfy the accuracy and real-time system, so this paper proposes super-resolution image reconstruction algorithm based on SURF (Speeded up Robust...

A system model is developed where the criterion to partition the world into a system and a rest is based on the functional relation between its states. This approach implies that the gestalt of systems becomes very dynamic. Especially interactions between systems may create temporary super systems ”on the fly”. The reference to the function notion establishes the link to computation. It is show...
