levant region (eastern mediterranean) has been of special importance in the history of commercial activities. in seventh/thirteenth century, two significant events influenced the development and prosperity of the commercial activities of this region, of which the most important were in the field of slave trade. first, the developments of the crusades, especially the fourth crusade (1204 ce) and...

1. Telerobotic Performance Specifications A telerobotic system (Figure 1) consists of a master robot and a slave robot. For me telerobotic system, me designer can specify me desired behavior [2,13]. For example, me designer may want a dynamic behavior in which me human operator senses scaled-down values o( me forces which me slave robot senses when maneuvering an object, To achieve mis, a contr...

Introduction Mediterranean fever is an autosomal recessive disease. Its features are intermittent attacks of painful inflammation, abdominal pain, fever, and arthritis. Full identification of the disease has been possible in the last 50 years. It is seen in Turkish, Armenian, Jewish (Arabs, Ashkenazi) and Mediterranean region ethnics. Its attacks take from a few hours to a few days of symptoms ...

PASM 2004: Performance models for master/slave parallel programs – p.1/22

We numerically study the synchronization of two unidirectionally coupled single-mode semiconductor lasers in a master-slave configuration. The master laser is an external-cavity laser that operates in a chaotic regime while for the slave laser we consider two configurations. In the first one, the slave laser is also an external-cavity laser, subjected to, its own optical feedback and the optica...

ABSTRACT In this paper, we investigate a new efficient quality of service (QoS) routing protocol based on the time-slot leasing mechanism over Bluetooth wireless personal area networks (WPANs). In a Bluetooth scatternet, a QoS route path is constructed through a series of QoS slave-masterslave communications. The ”transmission holding” problem is incurred because the master node is the communic...

Teleoperation systems consist of two subsystems namely, the master and the slave. Master is used by the human operator to send commands to the slave to achieve a task. In bilateral teleoperation, the interaction forces acquired from the slave sub-system is sent to the master to increase the level of tele-presence. In this kind of a setting, data has to be transferred through a communication lin...
