Thanks to the advances in micromachining fabrication technologies and significant
cost reduction due to mass production, miniature sensors of angular rate, or
gyroscopes, found their way into the everyday life of every user of modern gadgets,
such as smart phones, tablets or even wristwatches. Often ...
Electric distribution networks are critical parts of power delivery systems. In recent
years, many new technologies and distributed energy resources have been inte-
grated into these networks. To provide electricity at the possible lowest cost and at
required quality, long-term planning is essential ...
December 2007, San Jose, California: It seems a long time ago.
I walked into a big networking company to head their small
Power over Ethernet (PoE) applications team. Surprisingly,
I hardly knew anything about PoE prior to that day, having been a
switching-power conversion engineer almost all my lif ...
Modern power systems involve large amount of investment. An electric power
system comprises of generation, transmission, and distribution of electric energy.
Growth of power systems has led to very complex networks extended across large
areas. In such situations, the proper functioning of a modern p ...
adio Frequency Identification (RFID) is a rapidly developing automatic wireless data-collection
technology with a long history.The first multi-bit functional passive RFID systems,with a range of
several meters, appeared in the early 1970s, and continued to evolve through the 1980s. Recently,
RFID ha ...
RFID (radio-frequency identification) is the use of a wireless non-contact system
that uses radio-frequencyelectromagnetic fields to transfer datafrom a tag attached
to an object, for the purposes of automatic identification and tracking [38]. The
basic technologies for RFID have been around for a l ...
Although doing science is at the heart of discovery, the effort would have
very limited consequence in the long term without writingscience. As a social
enterprise that depends on collaboration, scientific inquiry requires its practi-
tioners to write on a regular basis. From time to time, some memb ...
This book describes a unifying framework to networked teleoperation systems
cutting across multiple research fields including networked control system for linear
and nonlinear forms, bilateral teleoperation, trilateral teleoperation, multilateral
teleoperation, cooperative teleoperation, and some te ...
Inventors have long dreamed of creating machines that think. This desire dates
back to at least the time of ancient Greece. The mythical figures Pygmalion,
Daedalus, and Hephaestus may all be interpreted as legendary inventors, and
Galatea, Talos, and Pandora may all be regarded as artificial life ( ...
