Current FTL schemes have inevitable limitations in terms of memory requirement, performance, garbage collection overhead, and scalability. To overcome these limitations, we propose a workload adaptive flash translation layer referred to as WAFTL.…

Snap-shot mechanisms are used to read a globally consistent set of variable values. Methods based on locking are penalized by blocking, which typically leads to difficulties in guaranteeing deadlines of high priority tasks. A method which combines…

This paper describes walk-to-brachiate transfer of a multi-locomotion robot (MLR). The MLR has multiple types of locomotion such as biped walking, quadruped walking and brachiation. This transfer is carried out through vertical ladder climbing as…
-
We describe here the Walkaround, a new rehabilitation device that allows walking without hand support of individuals with limited ability to control posture. The design of this device was motivated by the recent development of functional electrical…

This paper describes the means of tuning-up method of the walking parameters to go up and down stairs for a biped robot with leg mechanisms using Stewart platforms. It has been confirmed that the stroke range of use could be reduced by tuning up the…

We demonstrate in this paper our motion generation sheme for the generation of stable bipedal walking motions and we expand it to enhance its flexibility and independency. An algorithm for the control of appropriate orientations of the feet and the…

In this paper, we present what we believe to be the first documented experiment to replace an existing PC-based system that had goals of "bridging the digital divide" for an agricultural district with a mobile-phone-based system in which a small,…

The electronics packages for many robot control systems have very similar requirements, yet are often redesigned for each custom application. To reduce wasted time and effort, the project presented in this paper (the Wireless Autonomous Robot…

Proton NMR studies have been carried out as a function of temperature from 210 K to 300 K on water confined within single-walled carbon nanotubes. The NMR lineshape at and below the freezing point of bulk water is asymmetric and can be decomposed…
-
The traditional method used in the water quality classification of Finnish lakes includes the collection of water samples from lakes and their analysis in laboratory conditions. The classification is based on statistical analysis of water quality…

Discusses the proposed methodology for the implementation of a monitoring tool for surface water run-off in (semi-)arid areas. This tool is being developed as part of a two year multi-disciplinary shared cost project supported by the European Union…

Water vapor measurements by Raman lidar during the ARM 1997 Water Vapor Intensive Observation PeriodThe Department of Energy's Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) program initiated a series of three intensive operating periods (IOPs) at its Cloud and Radiation Testbed (CART) site in northern Oklahoma. The goal of these IOPs is to improve and…

The development of low-cost, reliable sensors will rely on devices capable of converting an analyte binding event to an easily read electrical signal. Organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) are ideal for inexpensive, single-use chemical or biological…

This paper deals with a comparative study on using water and air as actuation means for the control of a fluidic muscle (designed for air) and assesses the performance, particularly from a dynamic and energetic point of view. A medium with higher…

The goal of the WaterNet project is to improve and optimize the sustained ability of water cycle researchers, stakeholders, organizations and networks to interact, identify, harness, and extend NASA research results to augment decision support tools…
-
The authors propose an alternative wave equation-based time-space domain synthetic aperture radar (SAR) algorithm. The proposed algorithm can be interpreted as the exact time-space domain counterpart of the wave equation-based ω-k domain SAR…
-
Presents new extended measurements of wind waves in the presence of artificial organic films, using two optical spectrum analysers, one measuring phase velocities and the other measuring variations of the wavenumber spectrum of the wind waves. It…

Two different neural network schemes for the classification of light detection and ranging (LIDAR) waveforms for the LARSEN 500 airborne system and for extraction of ocean information are proposed. The first method employs a single layer of linear…
-
We consider the problem of waveform design for multiple input/multiple output (MIMO) radars, where the transmit waveforms are adjusted based on target and clutter statistics. A model for the radar returns which incorporates the transmit waveforms is…

Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) ohmic switches for radio-frequency (RF) signals have certain advantages over solid-state switches, such as lower insertion loss, better linearity, and lower static power dissipation. The RF MEMS switch discussed…
