Another (and armless) army

Armless Climbing and Walking in Robotics

Climbing and walking robots perform tasks that are too difficult, dangerous or time consuming for the human worker. These tasks can be inspection work in hazardous or unpleasant environments (Briones et al., 1994) and, (Xu & Ma, 2002), military, maintenance (Tokioka & Sakai, 1988), overhauling (Yanzeng et al., 1999), manufacturing (Shuliang et al., 2000), and search and rescue works. With all p...

Armless mitochondrial tRNAs in Enoplea (Nematoda)

The mitochondrial genome of metazoan animal typically encodes 22 tRNAs. Nematode mt-tRNAs normally lack the T-stem and instead feature a replacement loop. In the class Enoplea, putative mt-tRNAs that are even further reduced have been predicted to lack both the T- and the D-arm. Here we investigate these tRNA candidates in detail. Three lines of computational evidence support that they are inde...

Data Alignment between Army C4I Databases and Army Simulations

C4I Interfaces to Simulations are limited in functionality. One of the principle factors causing this is a lack of interface standards. While standards are a necessary condition, they are not sufficient. In order to have a complete interface, the data to be exchanged must be represented in both systems (C4I and Simulation). However, the current status is that C4I systems and simulations 1) do n...

Parody: Another Revision

The vast diversity of the proposed definitions of parody, both before and after the twentieth century, can be an emblem of the lack of a thorough agreement amongst the literary critics about the definition of this literary technique (genre?!). While there is not a comprehensive all-accepted definition of parody, modern and postmodern literatures both exhibit a wide application of it. After look...
