Cooperative virtual environments, where users simultaneously manipulate objects, is one of the subfields of Collaborative virtual environments (CVEs). In this paper we simulate the use of two string based parallel robots in cooperative teleoperation task. Two users setting on separate machines connected through local network operate each robot. In this context, we investigate the effects of vis...

the performance of women agribusiness cooperatives in oyo state, nigeria was assessed in this study. the study employed a multi-stage sampling technique to select 6 women cooperative groups (aggregating to 175 individuals); 36 individual women; and 4 institutions across 6 lgas in two agricultural zones of the state. findings show that majority (55.6%) of the respondents belong to processing org...

Cognitive Radio is an modern technology that is used to get the picture of spectrum and cope themselves to operate the secondary users who are unlicensed to share the spectrum with licensed primary users. Cooperative spectrum sensing allows unlicensed access whenever possible to the unexploited portions of the licensed spectrum by exploiting the spatial diversity among multiple secondary users....

the purpose of this study was to investigate and analyze factors influencing farmers’ participation in irrigation networks management, with an approach to compare two groups of farmers (one in irrigation networks with wua (water users' association), and the other in networks lacking wua). the methodological approach was a descriptive-correlational and causal-comparative study of the survey...

Wireless cooperative content sharing, based on the synergistic use of cellular and short-range technologies, has recently gained much interest from academic and industrial communities. Besides energy saving and information transfer delay reduction, this paradigm can enable a significant reduction in cellular bandwidth usage, which also means monetary saving for users. In fact, such a cooperatio...

AS KNOWLEDGE STORAGE SYStems grow in size and complexity, it becomes unreasonable to expect that users always know enough about the data and how the data are organized to construct accurate and useful queries. Even when a system has syntactic utilities for building queries, users continue to compose queries that contain misconceptions, are too general, or are bound to fail. Cooperative-answerin...
