The use of multi-copter systems started to grow over the last years in various applications. designed solutions require high stability and maneuverability. To fulfill these specifications, a robust control strategy must be integrated. Focusing on this challenge, research proposes an adaptive design applied physical model quadrotor prototype. proposed structure guarantees robustness, flexibility...

The long delay in returning test results during early infant diagnosis of HIV (EID) often causes loss-to-follow-up prior to antiretroviral treatment (ART) initiation in resource-limited settings. A point-of-care (POC) test may help overcome these challenges. We evaluated the performance of the LYNX p24 Antigen POC test in Mozambique. 879 HIV-exposed infants under 18 months of age were enrolled ...

In this paper, the Gabriel and Relative Neighbourhood graphs are used to select a suitable subset of prototypes for the Nearest Neighbour rule. Experiments and results are reported showing the effectiveness of the method and comparing its performance to those obtained by classical techniques.

Rigorous evaluation of the functionality and originality of student designs in upper level digital system design courses is challenging at best. Courses such as the ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) Design Laboratory and Computer Design and Prototyping Laboratory require students to create simulations and hardware realizations of systems that have complex functional and performance...

We have assembled a system using a personal computer workstation equipped with standard office software, an audio system, speech recognition software and an inexpensive radio-based wireless microphone that permits laboratory workers to enter or modify data while performing other work. Speech recognition permits users to enter data while their hands are holding equipment or they are otherwise un...
