Remote teleoperation has shown significant advancements since the first system was proposed by Goertz in 1940s. In recent years, research on shared control methodologies which robot assists operators accomplishing desired tasks gained extensive attention. One such important task is object grasping. this paper, we propose a framework to enhance teleoperated grasping performance. The built upon v...

This paper describes the use of a transparent TCP gateway to improve the performance of applications operating in a shared secure satellite environment. Typically, a satellite gateway is installed at each end of the satellite link, and the gateways process all traffic traversing the link. With the proliferation of virtual private network (VPN) technologies, multiple encrypted tunnels can be est...

An hybrid control architecture with reactive, deliberative, and cognitive components appropriate to human-oriented mobile robots is presented. The paper presents globally our control architecture and describes some of its modules in detail: local mapbuilding module, reactive control module and wheel ́s velocity controller. Some discussion is made concerning trajectory planning and path-tracking ...

A shared control approach is proposed to reveal the synergies of visual servoing and telepresence in a robotic on-orbit servicing scenario. Both methods, visual servoing and telepresence, have their respective strengths and are subject to challenges for the task at hand. In a shared control approach, the advantages of a human operator in the loop, its ability to react and adapt to unanticipated...

Multipath transport protocols, which transmit data over multiple distinct paths in an end-to-end connection are introduced. However, they have a problem in terms of fairness. When the transmissions along several paths share the same bottleneck link, the multipath connection receives higher throughput than a competing regular TCP flow, because it executes congestion control per path with the sam...

There are some critical privacy concerns in the current online social networks (OSNs). Users' information is disclosed to different entities that they were not supposed to access. Furthermore, the notion of friendship is inadequate in OSNs since the degree of social relationships between users dynamically changes over the time. Additionally, users may define similar privacy settings for their f...

Shared control has gained considerable attention in the automated vehicle field recent years, both from a theoretical point of view and also with multiple applications. The development shared systems was discussed previous review, which presented taxonomy focused on algorithms. However, it is still necessary to understand how these should be assessed terms system performance, driver behavior, c...
