Growing plants in extremely cold environmental conditions is a difficult and expensive process. The required microclimate usually created for artificially on the protected ground. For this purpose, we have developed an industrial prototype of mini greenhouse, which allows to grow single plants. Laboratory tests confirmed that greenhouse provides optimal internal environment due design features....

UNLABELLED The measurement of volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from building products and materials by manufacturers and testing laboratories, and the use of the test results for labeling programs, continue to expand. One issue that hinders wide acceptance for chamber product testing is the lack of a reference material to validate test chamber performance. To meet this need, the Nation...

We present a method of hyperspectral snapshot imaging that is based on diffraction in an intermediate image plane. In this image, plane diffracting microstructures are used to deflect light toward iris performs spectral filtering. The related spectrometry with reduced resolution. However, the shifts signal detected very accurately at potentially low cost. Our prototype system capable detecting ...

Structuring the information and knowledge needed to implement a factory, as well as doing its control and management by computer systems, is the purpose of the meta-model and solutions here presented. This meta-model includes: an object-oriented model to structure the needed information and knowledge; a model for manufacturing systems; a prototype that integrates the two previously referred mod...

This paper is an introduction to the short story and science fiction prototype The Machinery of Love and Grace. We cover a brief overview of the goals of science fiction prototyping as well as an example for how both Albert Einstein and Sigmund Freud used a very similar process to achieve greatness in their work. Finally we look into the specific science behind the story The Machinery of Love a...

This paper presents a prototype, not completely operational, that is intended to use c-graphs in the translation of assemblers. Firstly, the formalization of the structure and its principal notions (substructures, classes of substructures, order, etc.) are presented. Next section describes the prototype which is based on a Transformational System as well as on a rewriting system of c-graphs whi...
