This paper presents a methodology for modeling the coordination of multi robot teams in the execution of cooperative tasks The main idea is to use hybrid systems theory in order to model the cooperation Basically during the execution of the task each robot can be in one of several discrete states called roles being controlled by di erent dynamic equations in each role The coordination of the te...

To form a Cooperative Information System in which several preexisting information systems cooperate by means of database interoperability, a methodology for database schema integration is needed. Extensional issues should be taken into account in such a methodology. We show how objects in different databases that represent the same real world object may be correlated through an object identific...

This paper introduces a new learning methodology to quickly generate accurate and simple linguistic fuzzy models: the cooperative rules (COR) methodology. It acts on the consequents of the fuzzy rules to find those that are best cooperating. Instead of selecting the consequent with the highest performance in each fuzzy input subspace, as ad-hoc data-driven methods usually do, the COR methodolog...

In this article, we propose a new methodology for solving the vendor selection and the supply quotas determination problem. The proposed methodology combines the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) for determining the coefficients of the objective functions and a new multiple objective programming method based on the cooperative game theory for vendor selection and supply quotas determination. The...

in this research the cooperative sector's law has been analyzed under the general headings cooperative as an economic sector, cooperative's and cooperatives :union:’s nature, and damages of the acts to the law and the normal function of cooperatives and at the end it has been analytically concluded that regarding the stated structural and legal deficiencies while keeping the cooperati...

Aspect-oriented programming (AOP) seeks to improve software modularity via the separation of cross-cutting concerns. AOP proponents often advocate a development strategy where programmers write the main application (base code), ignoring cross-cutting concerns, and then aspect programmers, domain experts in their specific concerns, weave in the logic for these more specialized cross-cutting conc...

This paper reports on research for extending the Cooperative Control Synthesis methodology to include a more accurate modeling of the pilot's controller dynamics. Cooperative Control Synthesis (CCS) is a methodology that addresses the problem of how to design control laws for piloted, high-order, multivariate systems and/or nonconventional dynamic con gurations in the absence of ying qualities ...
