Sensing and planning are at the core of robot motion. Traditionally,
mobile robots have been used for performing various tasks
with a general-purpose processor on-board. This book grew out of
our research enquiry into alternate architectures for sensor-based
robot motion. It describes our research s ...
Objectives
The purpose of this notebook is to give you a brief introduction to the
DiscreteWavelets Toolbox and show you how to use it to load
images. Some basic image manipulation is illustrated as well. You will
also learn how to use measures and tools such as cumulative energy,
entr ...
This
paper presents a new adaptive mobility-aware MAC protocol
for sensor networks (MS-MAC). The protocol uses any change
in received signal level as an indication of mobility and, when
necessary, triggers the mobility handling mechanism. By doing
this way, the new mobility-aware MAC protocol can wo ...
Lithium–sulfur batteries are a promising energy-storage technology due to their relatively low cost and high theoretical energy density. However, one of their major technical problems is the shuttling of soluble polysulfides between electrodes, resulting in rapid capacity fading. Here, we present ...
Lithium–sulfur (Li–S) batteries with high energy density and long cycle life are considered to be one of the most promising next-generation energy-storage systems beyond routine lithium-ion batteries. Various approaches have been proposed to break down technical barriers in Li–S battery systems. ...
Smart Grids provide many benefits for society. Reliability, observability across the
energy distribution system and the exchange of information between devices are just
some of the features that make Smart Grids so attractive. One of the main products of
a Smart Grid is to data. The amount of data a ...

The understanding of electrical system design has become increas-
ingly important, not only to the electrical designer, but to safety, plant
and project engineers as well. With the advent of high energy costs, plant
and project engineers have needed to become more aware of electrical
systems. Both s ...
