Inherently Safe Backup Routing with BGP

IP routing requires the cooperation of a large number of Autonomous Systems (ASes) via the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP). Each AS applies local policies for selecting routes and propagating routes to others, with important implications for the reliability and stability of the global system. In and of itself, BGP does not ensure that every pair of hosts can communicate. In addition, routing poli...

Back-drivable and Inherently Safe Mechanism for Artificial Finger

This paper shows mechanisms for artificial finger based on a planetary gear system (PGS). Using the PGS as a transmitter provides an under-actuated system for driving three joints of a finger with back-drivability that is crucial characteristics for fingers as an end-effector when it interacts with external environment. This paper also shows the artificial finger employed with the originally de...

Does Genetic Programming Inherently Adopt Structured Design Techniques?

Basic genetic programming (GP) techniques allow individuals to take advantage of some basic top-down design principles. In order to evaluate the effectiveness of these techniques, we define a design as an evolutionary frozen root node. We show that GP design converges quickly based primarily on the best individual in the initial random population. This leads to speculation of several mechanisms...

Inherently chiral biscalix[4]arenes: design and syntheses.

Inherently chiral biscalix[4]arenes have been designed and synthesized by covalently assembling two calix[4]arene building blocks in a 1,3-position linking with 1,2-position pattern at the lower rims via two triethylene glycol bridges.
