A paradigm shift for rehabilitation robotics

A Methodology for Paradigm Shift to Explain Sustainable University

The sustainable university concept is rooted in prevalent paradigms pertained to economic, social and environmental development, which all focus on systemic thought and rationality; besides, they tend to  discover and solve problems by applying an interdisciplinary approach. However, the epistemic component is what these paradigms have ignored. The purpose of this study is to explain a methodo...

A Pedagogical Paradigm for Musical Robotics

This paper describes the making of a class to teach the history and art of musical robotics. The details of the curriculum are described as well as designs for our custom schematics for robotic solenoid driven percussion. This paper also introduces four new robotic instruments that were built during the term of this course. This paper also introduces the Machine Orchestra, a laptop orchestra wi...

Rehabilitation Robotics

Preparing for Paradigm Shift

Software systems bridge the gap between information processing needs and available computer hardware. As system requirements grow in complexity and hardware evolves, the gap does not necessarily widen, but it certainly changes. Although today’s applications require concurrency and today’s hardware provides concurrency, programming languages remain predominantly sequential. Concurrent programmin...
