We present a new roadmap for a rod-shaped robot operating in a three-dimensional workspace, whose configuration space is diffeomorphic to R3 × S2. This roadmap is called the rod hierarchical generalized Voronoi graph (rod-HGVG) and can be used to find a path between any two points in an unknown configuration space using only the sensor data. More importantly, the rod-HGVG serves as a basis for ...

One of the key deliverables of the EU HiPEAC FP6 Network of Excellence is a roadmap on high-performance embedded architecture and compilation – the HiPEAC Roadmap for short. This paper is the result of the roadmapping process that took place within the HiPEAC community and beyond. It concisely describes the key research challenges ahead of us and it will be used to steer the HiPEAC research eff...

The present study aimed to investigate the organic agricultural products supply chain in Iran and provide a processes maturity framework for this chain based on the Iranian Standard of the organic products. Accordingly, the model, proposed in this research, provides an improvement tool that addresses the integration of company's internal processes at low levels, and the integration of the proce...

agent oriented software engineering (aose) is an emerging field in computer science  and  proposes some systematic ideas for multi agent systems analysis, implementation and maintenance. despite the various methodologies introduced in the agent-oriented software engineering, the main challenges are defects in different aspects of methodologies. according to the defects resulted from weaknesses ...

This paper presents an algorithm for minimizing the travel e ort of a mobile robot navigating in an unknown environment along a graph constructed on-line by the robot. The graph, called a roadmap, represents the free con guration-space of the robot, and the travel e ort is measured by the length of the path traveled by the robot during the search. The algorithm, called Roadmap -A , strives to m...

BACKGROUND The roadmap approach is recommended to guide chronic hepatitis B treatment. We evaluated the cost-effectiveness of various treatment strategies in the global market. METHODS Lamivudine and telbivudine were tested in roadmap models with switch-to tenofovir if HBV was detectable at week 24 or add-on tenofovir if resistance developed at year 1. Tenofovir and entecavir were tested as c...

Both roadmapping and release planning deal with formulating releases for software systems. These are similar activities, in which roadmapping has a bird’s eye-view on the system in order to plan the product and release planning considers the system model in order to meet constraints of the roadmap. Although roadmapping and release planning depend on each other, usually traces from a roadmap to ...
