چکیده

H aving firmly grasped the torch that Mahadev Satyanarayanan handed to me, I feel like the second runner in a relay, sprinting to make as much progress as I can during my allotted time. Satya founded IEEE Pervasive Computing, which, in the last four years, has published a rich legacy of peer-reviewed work and earned a venerable reputation. I will do my best to maintain this reputation and, where possible, enhance it in pursuit of our collective cause. I thank Satya on behalf of the entire editorial team for doing a truly excellent job.

Visual Torch Position Control Using Fuzzy-Servoing Controller for Arc Welding Process

In this paper, we propose a fuzzy-servoing controller method for automatic welding. The proposed method uses a vision based arc tracking to find the initial points of the weld seam and to track them without a prior knowledge. Due to a serious melt down in the weld pool during the welding process, the method requires to control the welding torch in two directions, up-down and left-right directio...

Modifying a Conventional Grasping Control Approach for Undesired Slippage Control in Cooperating Manipulator Systems

There have been many researches on object grasping in cooperating systems assuming no object slippage and stable grasp and the control system is designed to keep the contact force inside the friction cone to prevent the slippage. However undesired slippage can occur due to environmental conditions and many other reasons. In this research, dynamic analysis and control synthesis of a cooperating ...

In this paper I evaluate the merit of costly signaling theory (CST) as a paradigm for understanding why men of Ifaluk atoll torch fish. I argue that torch fishing is a handicap that signals men’s productivity. Consistent with CST, torch fishing is observed by the predicted audience (women), energetically costly to perform, and a reliable indicator of the frequency a man fishes during the trade ...
