We present a human-robot-cooperation welding system, consisting of several phases including a coarse acquisition of the work piece geometry, interactive fine-scanning of welding seam regions and automated optimizing path planning after task specification by the user. The coarse geometry acquisition component is explained in detail showing the feasible application of a novel and cheap 3D-Sensor ...

Betriebliches Kontinuitätsmanagement (Business Continuity Management, kurz: BCM) ist im Sinne des betrieblichen Notfallmanagements integraler Bestandteil ziviler Sicherheit. BCM ist laut ISO 22301 (2014) ein ganzheitlicher Managementprozess, der potenzielle Bedrohungen für Organisationen und deren Auswirkungen auf Geschäftsabläufe ermittelt. Bei Betrachtung der aktuellen Studienlage liegt der S...

Resource allocation, a problem of increasing importance in control theory (Murray, 2003), involves splitting some quantity and dedicating appropriate proportions of it to optimize some quantity of interest. In “dynamic resource allocation,” allocations are inputs to dynamical system and its response determines the quality of the allocation. For this, feedback information is typically used to re...

As acknowledged by the SESAR program, current ATC systems must be drastically improved to accommodate the predicted traffic growth in Europe. In this context, the Episode 3 project aims at assessing the performance of new ATM concepts, like 4D-trajectory planning and strategic deconfliction. One of the bottlenecks impeding ATC performances is the hourly capacity constraints defined on each en-r...

The intention is to describe an approach used at Philips Elektronikindustrier to combine the IRM-study with long range planning of Administration Development Presentation and discussion of methods for systems coordination and planning of AD, based on an information-and system-structure study carried out in 1986. This study has been the basis for long range planning and development of databases ...
