Frailty is a vulnerable situation among older adults which can lead to unfavorable health outcomes such as falls, mortality, functional decline and institutionalization. The increasing number of elderly people and low rate of mortality has necessitated the need for high-quality medical services for this aging population, and this has led to a high cost of geriatric health care. There exist a hu...

The power of architectural modelling approaches in addressing the complexity of software systems derives, to a large extent, from the way they are able to separate coordination from computation concerns. However, distribution has become a key factor of complexity in the modelling of ubiquitous, software-intensive systems. Distribution interferes with both the way computations are performed and ...

When viewed as a subset of R, the shape or geometry of the work envelope varies from robot to robot. However, the work envelope can also be viewed within the framework of joint space R. In joint space, the work envelope is typically characterised by bounds on linear combinations of joint variables. The constraints of this nature generate a convex polyhedron in R named the joint-space work envel...
