Collaboration is regarded as an effective approach to improve the efficiency of research resources and reduce risks in innovation activities. breadth important feature collaborative extent. Therefore, it necessary analyse its role between R&D subsidy explore direct indirect ties innovation. The paper based on government-funded projects, results show that collaboration organizations have pos...

differential steering of in-wheel electric vehicle provides the functions of both active steering and power assisted steering with the coupling control of force and displacement transfer characteristic of system. a collaborative optimization model of the differential power-assisted steering system of in-wheel electric vehicle is built, with steering economy as the main system optimization goal,...

A novel ultra-high compliance, low power, very accurate and high output impedance current output stage (COS) with extremely high output current drive capability is proposed in this paper. The principle of operation of this unique structure is discussed, its most important formulas are derived and its outstanding performance is verified by HSPICE simulation in TSMC 0.18µm CMOS, BSIM3, and Level4...

Increasing interest in Collaborative Virtual Environments (CVEs) in different applications has imposed new requirements on the design of IVAs. On the one hand, these requirements include cognitive abilities, and on the other hand social and communication behaviour. The use of a Multi-Agent System (MAS) has been a successful approach to address the variety of evolving abilities needed by an IVA....

BioC is a simple XML format for text, annotations and relations, and was developed to achieve interoperability for biomedical text processing. Following the success of BioC in BioCreative IV, the BioCreative V BioC track addressed a collaborative task to build an assistant tool for BioGRID curation. For this track, we divided the whole task into 8 different subtopics including gene/protein/orga...

Enterprise interoperability and collaborative work are two aspects to involve in knowledge oriented enterprise collaboration. The first one implies a rather systemic view, the second one a rather activity related view on collaboration of enterprises within their ecosystems. For example, manufacturing or distribution are often dealt with by applying an input-output perspective. Product developme...

Recent advances in computer hardware have improved support for co-located collaborative task completion, such as through large, multi-user, multi-touch tables. Software engineers need to complement these advances with improved software user interfaces that reflect any different behaviours that arise from the different interaction techniques (e.g. multi-user, multitouch tables versus single-user...
