Designing a software architecture is about defining and composing highlevel design structures. Whereas describing several structures is is fairly well supported, both non-aspect-oriented and aspectoriented Architectural Description Languages (ADLs) fall short when it comes to documenting relations or compositions between architecturallyrelevant crosscutting structures. This makes in turn separa...

Due to reduced budgets, higher political expectations and increasing competition between operators, there is growing pressure on public transport companies and authorities to improve their operational efficiency. It is thus of utter importance for them to be able to identify inefficiencies, bottlenecks and potentials in their public transport service. Recorded operational data, which has quickl...

OBJECTIVE The present randomized controlled trial compared arthrocentesis of the effusive knee followed by corticosteroid injection performed by the conventional anatomic landmark palpation-guided technique to the same procedure performed with ultrasound (US) needle guidance. METHODS Sixty-four palpably effusive knees were randomized to (i) palpation-guided arthrocentesis with a conventional ...

he aim of the project is to build an assembly station with the preventive section under the process of poke yoke system. Poke yoke is the general methodology following in industry to avoid mismatching product in assembly stations. The main aim of this project is to avoid assembling process when the sequential procedure is not followed. The project also deals with AGV – Automatic Guided Vehicle....

United States and European safety standards have evolved to protect workers near Automatic Guided Vehicles (AGV's). However, performance standards for AGV's and mobile robots have only recently begun development. Lessons can be learned from research and standards efforts for mobile robots applied to emergency response and military applications. Research challenges, tests and evaluations, and pr...

This report is benefited from interviews of Tri-Met staff involved in the development, implementation and use of the agency's automatic passenger counter and automatic vehicle location systems. The staff interviewed included Their insights are gratefully acknowledged. Tom Kimpel and Pete Fielding also provided many helpful comments on an earlier draft.

Clinical diagnosis, which aims to assign diagnosis codes for a patient based on the clinical note, plays an essential role in decision-making. Considering that manual could be error-prone and time-consuming, many intelligent approaches text mining have been proposed perform automatic diagnosis. However, these methods may not achieve satisfactory results due following challenges. First, most of ...

Vehicle Re-ID has recently attracted enthusiastic attention due to its potential applications in smart city and urban surveillance. However, it suffers from large intra-class variation caused by view variations illumination changes, inter-class similarity especially for different identities with a similar appearance. To handle these issues, this paper, we propose novel deep network architecture...
