Based on the official statistical sources available from Office of Prosecutor General and State Judicial Administration Ukraine, group component environmental crime has been analyzed for period 2009-2022. The long-term criminological analysis made by authors allowed identifying specific characteristics criminals in this category finding out indicators criminal activity, including as part organi...

Physiological equivalent temperature (PET) is one of most used indices for outdoor human well-being evaluation; its determination particularly helpful adaptation strategies in built-up areas affected by the urban heat island (UHI) phenomenon. In this work, we presented a methodology to compute spatially and temporally resolved PET values during heatwave at city level, based on combination satel...

In this paper, we propose the knowledgeable envi. ronment as a framework for integrated systems for human-machine co-existing space. In the knowledgeable environment, integration is achieved as knowledge-level communication and cooperation. We abstract all machines as information agents whose roles and communication are understandable for people. Ontology is here used as explicit representation...

This paper presents an approach we have recently developed for multi robot cooperation It is based on a paradigm where robots incrementally merge their plans into a set of already coordinated plans This is done through exchange of informa tion about their current state and their future actions This leads to a generic framework which can be applied to a variety of tasks and applications The para...

In this paper, estimation and tracking of the propagation delays, also known as code acquisition and tracking, in an asynchronous DS-CDMA system are considered. Of special interest is the performance in a near-far environment and the proposed estimator is shown to be near-far resistant. The suggested technique is subspace based and relies on recursively tracking the signal subspace, followed by...

Performance orientation in the development process of parallel software is motivated by outlining the misconception of current approaches where performance activies come in at the very end of the development mainly in terms of measurement or monitoring after the implementation phase At that time major part of the development work is already done and performance pitfalls are very hard to repair ...

Based on canonical correlation analysis the iteratively re-weighted multivariate alteration detection (MAD) method is used to successfully perform unsupervised change detection in bi-temporal Landsat ETM+ images covering an area with villages, woods, agricultural fields and open pit mines in North RhineWestphalia, Germany. A link to an example with ASTER data to detect change with the same meth...
