The Sensing Subsystem of RAS
نویسندگان
چکیده
The RAS, “Robot Antartico di Superficie”, is intended to operate in a hostile and generally unknown environment, where the ability of sensing obstacles or special features (crevasses, sastrugi, composition of the soil) can represent the key point to successfully perform the required mission or to fail: wind storms (and many other atmospheric phenomena giving rise to white out) can make useless optical sensing equipment; ice microcrystals can penetrate practically everywhere, causing failures in many components; magnetic storms can blind GPS and radio equipment.

Providing Persistent and Consistent Resources through Event Log Analysis and Predictions for Large-scale Computing Systems
1.INTRODUCTION The ability to track and analyze every possible fault condition, whether transient (soft) or permanent (hard), is one of the most critical requirements for large-scale cluster computer systems. All such events are generally termed as “RAS Events” (RAS for Reliability, Availability, and Serviceability). Depending on the complexities of the cluster computers, the RAS events must ad...
متن کاملThe Sociological Analysis of Iran-Iraq War based on Parsons' Theory
The present study attempts to analyze Iraq war against Iran based on Parsons' subsystems. The main question aims at finding the social positive/negative functions of the war. According to the studies, the first effect of the war was damaging behavioral organism subsystem so that it couldn't realize its functions. Subsequently, the chaos spread to the personality subsystem. Except for the qualit...
متن کاملAvailability of k-out-of-n: F Secondary Subsystem with General Repair Time Distribution
In this paper we study the steady state availability of main k-out-of-n: F and secondary subsystems having general repair time distribution. When more than k units of main subsystem fail, then the main subsystem shuts off the secondary subsystem. The life time distributions of the main units and that of secondary subsystem are exponentially distributed. A repair facility having single repairman...
متن کاملFlood hazard zones using 2d hydrodynamic modeling and remote sensing approaches
Increasing frequency and severity of flooding demands identification of flood hazard zones in Kalilangan, Bukidnon in response to the echoing need of better disaster preparedness via enhancing the understanding and awareness of the public on flood characteristics by integrating the use of two-dimensional hydrodynamic modeling and remote sensing. Flood simulation was carried out in a two-dimensi...
متن کاملAutomated Image Reception, Processing and Distribution System for High Resolution Remote Sensing Satellites
This paper addresses the development work of image reception, processing and distribution system for the KOMPSAT-2 (KOrea Multi-Purpose SATellite-2), which to be launched in 2004 by the Korean Government. KOMPSAT-2 is a new high-resolution earth observation satellite that is capable of 1m panchromatic and 4m multi-spectral imaging. The system under development is divided into three sub-systems:...
