The rapid development of information technology enables informationization to become the necessary means for medium-sized and small enterprises to improve their competitive advantages. With efforts for several years, establishment of informationization in medium-sized and small enterprises has achieved some achievements. However, because they started later, together with disadvantages of the en...

The prediction of the sound radiated by vibrating structures and the layout of measures to reduce it, is a key issue for maintaining appropriate comfort in residential buildings, for guaranteeing the operability of sensitive machinery in production and testing and for the provision of appropriate conditions at working places. For the prediction the excitation, the transmission and the radiation...

I doubt it! In fact, comparatively few MT systems have been installed in industry. Practical experience in industrial applications is very limited. Why have MT systems not caught on in industry as well as had to be expected given the state of maturity that they have reached? What has to be done to increase the translators' and the employers' readiness to accept MT systems as an operable and use...

Defects in the lattice are of primal importance to tune graphene chemical, thermal and electronic properties. Electron-beam irradiation is an easy method induce defects following pre-designed patterns, but no systematic study time evolution resulting available. In this paper, change over defected sites created with low-energy ($\leq 20$ keV) electron studied both experimentally via micro-Raman ...

Underwater Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs) have a significant support role to play in offshore petroleum production facilities. The extent to which ROVs can replace diver-based operations depends significantly on ROV capacity and the relative costs of mobilising and implementing the two modes of underwater operation. This paper presents work directed at two aspects of ROV operability: the qua...

Current methods for Multi-AUV cooperation suffer in low communication environments. State of the art methods employ auctioneering or planning to determine a single AUV’s task. These systems require communication for efficient task selection. Most strategies assume a teammate is inoperable if a communication timeout is reached which reduces overall team efficiency. Including teammate prediction ...
