Hitherto the alcoholic had been hardly worthy of serious scientific study, being regarded by the medical profession as well as by lay people as the subject of moral weakness ...

This document will briefly describe my experiences with the Prometheus methodology, in particular, the use of the Prometheus Design Tool (PDT) for the development of a Prometheus design for a Simple Path Planning Agent for a UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle). The overall impression of PDT is that it has facilitated the design process and enabled an iterative approach. This is due to the maintenance...

Eng. 1990) and the marker method for computing discrete approximations to the Richards equations. Unfortunately, all such implementations are plagued by topological complications. For example, sampling issues on the evolving ...
